CPR – Center for Performance Research Announces Spring 2026 Season of Public Programs and Technical Residency with Yiseul Lemieux

Brooklyn, NY— CPR – Center for Performance Research, which supports the development and incubation of new work in dance, performance, and time-based art, is pleased to announce its Spring 2026 Season of public programs featuring performances, installations, workshops, and special events with CPR resident artists and an expansive network of artists, organizations, and guest curators, as well as a Spring 2026 Technical Residency with artist Yiseul LeMieux.

“This spring at CPR, artists are building networks of care that protect, regenerate, instruct, and fortify our community, offering means of resistance, refusal, sanctuary, and solace against predominant structures of power,” says Kerosene Jones, CPR Programs Manager. “Through spontaneous moving companies, irreverent demonstrations of grief, ecosomatic activation, dance scores for the visually impaired, ecstatic whirling, dissections of state propaganda, and more, artists this season explore fate, chance, nationalism, indigeneity, shame, nourishment, trance, cosmology, resilience, and the strength of collective resources.”
