"Pods", one of the company's most requested works, is a unique trio inspired by stop motion films of plant growth fused with the idea of plantlike alien lifeforms. The work features the three performers encased inside of stretchy fabric pods which also each encompass a mini-trampoline. The dancers come to life breaking free from their pods in a beautiful and unusual performative work.
