Triskelion Arts on Tuesday announced its 2026 Spring Season, bringing a wide-ranging lineup of premieres, resident artist showcases and returning programs to its Greenpoint performance space.
Running from March through June, the season highlights interdisciplinary dance, physical theater and nightlife-rooted performance by artists working across movement, ritual and experimental form.
The season includes culminating performances by two of Trisk’s 2026 resident artists, alongside evening-length premieres and collaborative programs that reflect the organization’s continued focus on artistic risk, creative autonomy and sustained support for city-based artists.
The season opens Mar. 12–14 with Valentina Baché’s Dog God//Germ Angels, an evening-length work driven by rhythm, endurance and collective force. The performance unfolds as a physically charged ritual, examining cycles of rage, care and transformation through relentless movement and sound.
On Mar. 27 and 28, Triskelion Arts hosts the sixth edition of SYNTHESIS, guest curated by nightlife performer and producer Miz Jade. The theatrical variety show spotlights queer nightlife artists working across drag, burlesque, music and performance, offering elevated production support within a theater setting. This year’s lineup features Bertha Vanayshun, Blue, Bob Voyage, Cunning Stunt, Sherry Poppins, Shia Ho and Miz Jade.
April 9–11 marks the premiere of STAR SPANGLED MANOR by Verbal Animal, Trisk’s 2026 Spring Production Resident Artist. Developed through an intensive residency, the interdisciplinary dance-theater work interrogates the mythology of the American Dream through movement, projection, sound and design. Framed through a queer lens, the piece navigates surveillance, rave culture and power structures, revealing how systems of order fracture under pressure while gesturing toward new collective futures.
From Apr. 30 to May 2, Dorchel Haqq premieres the underscore, an immersive physical theater work set within the home. The piece examines embodied joy, grief, faith and the weight of systemic oppression, drawing from Black fragility, Afropessimism, and Afrofuturism as reflected through media and memory.
Jamal Jackson Dance Company brings Adultification to the Trisk stage May 7-9. The work explores the racial bias that perceives Black children as older and less innocent than their peers, juxtaposing childhood joy with the burden of forced adulthood through contemporary and African-influenced movement.
On May 28–30, SPLIT BILL #48 features new works by emerging artists Elinor Kleber Diggs and Kimie Parker. Diggs’ Crimson examines the tension between sincerity and artifice, while Parker’s meet me in the lake, my swan explores displacement, sisterhood and dual Japanese-American identity through folkloric imagery.
The season concludes Jun. 11–13 with in essence by Ke’ron J. Wilson, Trisk’s 2026 Artist-in-Residence. The ritual performance centers trans embodiment and spiritual reclamation, weaving movement, spoken word, original score and live projection into a ceremonial space of witnessing and care.
All performances take place at Triskelion Arts, 106 Calyer St. in Greenpoint. Tickets are available online with tiered pricing ranging from $17 to $50.
