Table of Silence Project is achieved through partnerships with Dance/NYC, Chelsea Factory, The Juilliard School, Gibney Dance, Martha Graham Center, Steps on Broadway, among many others.
BDT creates an inclusive experience that is welcoming and accessible to all artists and audiences regardless of race, gender, sexual orientation, or religion.
We are thrilled to announce the release of the book “Table of Silence Project”, a labor of love designed and produced by photographer Paul B. Goode in collaboration with Buglisi Dance Theatre. The book tells the evolving story of BDT’s annual Call to Action for Peace through photographs selected from the more than 50,000 images taken by Paul B. Goode over 12 years and essays by the photographer himself, Jacqulyn Buglisi, Terese Capucilli, artistic collaborators and dancers.
The book is on sale HERE. After printing costs, 100% of the sales proceeds will go to Buglisi Dance Theatre for future productions of the "Table of Silence Project." Signed copies are available directly from BDT. Your support is deeply appreciated. Thank you!

Choreographed by Virginie Mécène, UNUM, a trio for 3 men, explores the idea that mankind comes from the same source of energy. UNUM (one in Latin) is a collaboration between Mécène and composer Jacopo Baboni Schilingi that utilizes groundbreaking medical technology to measure the breath. The dancer’s breath is translated into sound as they move through the choreography. Unconsciously, we are One.

Buglisi…works in images that seduce the eye as much as the imagination… a rarity in today’s world…Probably no woman, other than Graham, has plumbed such emotional depths choreographically.
