Diavolo at Proctors 

America’s Got Talent finalists in Schenectady
7:30 p.m. Wednesday, Jan. 30

SCHENECTADY, N.Y.—JAN. 24, 2019—Seen by over 95 million people as one of the top 10 finalists on NBC’s America’s Got Talent, DIAVOLO shatters boundaries and soars beyond the grasp of gravity. The Los Angeles-based dance company continues to push a new edge of performance with the inventive and ingenious Jacques Heim at the helm. 

The program includes DIAVOLO’s signature crowd favorite Trajectoire and their latest work, Voyage, a story of a woman’s journey to the moon and back. Both works feature meticulously designed architectural structures that have become DIAVOLO’s hallmark, and their performances have been receiving standing ovations night after night.

A fusion of dance, acrobatics and gymnastics, DIAVOLO explores the relationship between the human body and its architectural environment. Broadway World called Trajectoire “full of incredible feats of daring and acrobatics … the dance equivalent of going down a roller coaster… a pure shot of adrenaline.”

DIAVOLO goes where none have gone before, beyond reality, into a world that exceeds your wildest dreams. “We are very much the NFL of dance,” says Artistic Director Jacques Heim. “We practice like football players … you have to be a part of a team, because everybody works with one another.” DIAVOLO has been presented throughout Asia, Europe, Latin America and the United States.

DIAVOLO is at Proctors, 7:30 p.m. Wednesday, Jan. 30. Tickets, $25–$125, are available at the Box Office at Proctors, 432 State Street, Schenectady; by phone at 518.346.6204; and online at proctors.org.
