The Four of Us

The Four of Us is a collaboration between international dancer makers Adam Castañeda (Houston, Texas), Domokos Kovacs (Budapest, Hungary), and Ana Paula Ornelas (Hermosillo, Mexico). The work began in August 2023, when the three dancer/choreographers met at Art Omi in Upstate New York. A year later, they reconnected in Budapest, Hungary to process the previous year of transition, disappointment, and ennui. The result is The Four of Us. Click the button below to learn more.

Through writing, movement, and prop manipulation, Adam, Domokos , and Ana Paula explore what it means to be at a crossroads in community. After experiencing an artistic "high of a lifetime," how does one navigate the inevitable trajectory back to normalcy? Castaneda, Kovacs, and Ornelas create a quiet, yet, robust introspection that sees them confronting the fear and excitement of a blank canvas...anything is possible, even when nothing seems possible. Three friends, each armed with their performance traditions and toolboxes, confront the precipice together, along with a fourth, unnamed figure that seems to drive their focus, desires, and, ultimately, dreams.
