Twenty five years ago, Bill T. Jones and the Bill T. Jones/Arnie Zane Company were scheduled to premiere a new work on a plaza between the Twin Towers on September 12, 2001. That performance never took place following the events of 9/11.

Now, 25 years later, Jones returns to Lower Manhattan with the world premiere of Curriculum IV: Spin and Spin! Turn! Turn! Turn! Created with composer and musician Samora Pinderhughes, the new work reflects on loss, love, freedom, resilience and the passage of time.
