DESCRIPTION

Knockout is a fierce contemporary dance duet that explodes a dynamic choreographic collage of queer possibilities through intimacy, attraction, strength and survival.

Hailed by the Chicago Tribune as “two of Chicago’s most captivating performers,” Kilmurray + Brody propel audiences through a cinematic thrill ride of femme fight sequences, lush sonic landscapes, toothy camp, and partnerships that sidestep tidy categorization.

Intoxicating, heart-stopping, and surreal, Knockout exists inside of the disorienting moment after the point of contact but just before hitting the floor.

TKO, baby.
