ABOUT PERCEPTUAL MOTION DANCE COMPANY

About_PM (16K) Directed by award-winning choreographer Lin Shook, Perceptual Motion transforms the abstract imagery of dance into personal and meaningful experiences.

Incorporated in December 1983, Perceptual Motion has consistently produced excellent programs that have touched and empowered people of all ages and backgrounds. Perceptual Motion celebrates the powerful impact of dance in daily life. The choreography is exciting and accessible to the new dance audience as well as the seasoned viewer.

Our mission is to transform the abstract imagery of dance into personal and meaningful experiences that inspire and excite through choreography, instruction, and performance.

Lin Shook's award-winning choreography centers on communicating, expressing, and celebrating life. Her compelling and timeless images convey empowerment, joy, aesthetics, self-awareness and community. Company dancers bring a wealth of expressive wisdom from their own life experience.
The well-crafted choreography, performed with zest and passionate energy by the dancers, ranges from wry humor to thoughtful and sensitive interpretations of the human experience. Clever text, quirky movement, inventive combinations, captivating music and a connection to the audience are trademarks of Ms. Shook's choreographic style.

Performance venues include the Harold Washington Library Auditorium, Athenaeum Theater, Duncan YMCA Chernin Center for the Arts, Ruth Page Theater, University of Chicago, Links Hall, Vittum Theatre and Old Town School of Folk Music.

"The spectrum of ages and movement ability creates an inspiring dichotomy-one that's very robust yet calming; ethereal and real." (Lucia Mauro - The Chicago Tribune)
