About This Performance
Now in its eleventh year, San Francisco Performances’ annual PIVOT Festival is eagerly anticipated for its fresh, delightful sampling of captivating and compelling music of our time.
Guest curated this season by Andy Meyerson of San Francisco’s own The Living Earth Show, these three programs offer a thrilling and intimate survey of the networks, interconnections, and impacts of new music.
For this performance, choreographer/dancer Myles Thatcher and percussionist Andy Meyerson offer a contemporary take on the classical ballet pas de deux. Myles Thatcher is a member of San Francisco Ballet and, among other works, he choreographed the company’s acclaimed Colorforms, an innovative dance and film collaboration with SFMOMA.

Performer Biographies
Myles Thatcher is a soloist dancer with San Francisco Ballet and a choreographer. After training at The Harid Conservatory, Ellison Ballet, and San Francisco Ballet School, he joined SF Ballet in 2010. As a dancer, he has performed principal or featured roles in many classical and contemporary ballets, including Lensky in Onegin, and Paris in the 2015 film of Tomasson’s Romeo & Juliet for Lincoln Center at the Movies’ Great American Dance.
Andy Meyerson is a drummer and percussionist based in San Francisco, California. He is the Artistic Director, co-founder, and percussionist of The Living Earth Show, one of the premiere experimental classical ensembles in the United States. Named one of the “22 performers to watch in ‘22” by the Washington Post, The Living Earth Show has presented over a decade of “outstanding” (San Francisco Chronicle) and “transcendent” (Charleston City Paper) new music that pushes the boundaries of technical and artistic possibility while amplifying voices, perspectives, and bodies that the classical music tradition has often excluded.
