Illinoise (2024)
Choose options
Sufjan Stevens, Justin Peck, and Jackie Sibblies Drury’s 'Illinoise' arrived at the St. James Theatre in 2024, standing as an absolute, genre-defying masterpiece that captured four major Tony Award nominations and won Best Choreography. Conceived as an explosive, hyper-kinetic, and entirely non-verbal dance-theater spectacle, the production translates Stevens’s legendary multi-platinum concept album *Illinois* into a fluid stage canvas, tracking a tight-knit circle of young hikers who gather around a campfire to share surrealist, haunting folk fables of American identity and private griefs. Directed and choreographed by Justin Peck, the production featured an elite dance company.
