Through bold storytelling and collaborative artistry, we bring diverse voices to the stage, engaging audiences in thought-provoking experiences that bridge art and activism. We are committed to accessibility, inclusion, and fostering cross-cultural exchange, ensuring that dance remains a powerful tool for inspiring empathy, and encouraging action.KAIROS creates socially engaged, movement-based, interdisciplinary performances that merge strong dance technique with intense physicality, expressive story-telling, rich visual imagery, and immersive multimedia to illuminate urgent social and political themes, and spark important conversations. KAIROS envisions a world where dance serves as a catalyst for connectedness, healing, and justice.In pursuit of creating engaging, sensory work, Artistic Director DeAnna Pellecchia brings together artists from all disciplines - dancers, musicians, composers, visual artists, digital media designers, photographers, film artists, lighting designers and fashion designers - to collaborate on expressing ideas in innovative ways. Produced not only in theaters, but often in galleries, museums, site-specific settings and non-conventional venues, KAIROS performances defy the parameters and preconceived notions of ‘contemporary dance’; breaking the barriers of traditional space concepts, extending well-beyond the ‘fourth wall’, providing an immersive, intimate experience for audiences.For the past 13 years, KAIROS has been expanding access to the arts in Boston communities and beyond by consistently creating 2-3 innovative dance-theater performances per season; and offering annual cultural events, artist talks, open rehearsals, and interactive workshops that invite all to experience and understand the power of dance
