Synopsis
"Never Stand Still" transports the vieer into a world of non-stop movement and reveals why dance matters. Narrated by Tony Award winner Bill T. Jones and filmed on location at Jacob’s Pillow – America’s longest running dance festival – Never Stand Still immerses the vieer in thrilling live performances, candid conversations with world-class choreographers and dancers, backstage access, and rare archival footage. The film also tells the remarkable story of how an abandoned farm that was once a station on the Underground Railroad in the Berkshires of Massachusetts evolved into a nexus for dance throughout the world, today considered “the dance center of the nation” (The New York Times). Never Stand Still is a movie for people who already know about dance, and for those who know nothing about it.
