MOMIX

Famous for conjuring surreal images using props, light, shadow, humor and the human body, Moses Pendleton’s wildly popular MOMIX performs a month-long season at the Joyce with two classics. “Passion” is an erotic exploration of birth and being, set to Peter Gabriel’s score for Scorsese’s “The Last Temptation of Christ.” Playful and spiritual, the work is filled with the gravity-defying sights for which MOMIX is renowned. For the final two weeks, May 27-June 8, the dancers present “Lunar Sea,” an otherworldly montage of cinematic moments executed partly in black light and accompanied by projections. Through June 8. $44 general, $33 members, $25 Sunday evenings. The Joyce.175 Eighth Avenue. 212-242-0800, joyce.org.
