Erik Abbott-Main

Erik Abbott-Main is a Michigan native currently performing and choreographing in New York City. A graduate of Eastern Michigan University (BA Theatre Arts) and The Ohio State University (MFA Dance), he is an artist involved in choreography, improvisation, mixed media and instillation performances, as well as collaborations with other artists, and lots, lots more. His work has been presented in Michigan, Ohio, Los Angeles, New York City, Italy, & Canada, through support by Movement Research at the Judson Church, Columbus Dances Fellowship, The Johnstone Fund, Sunday at Central, OSU Alumni Graduate Research Grants, and more. Erik is a current performer in Punchdrunk’s long standing production, Sleep No More. Previously, he has performed with the Kristina Isabelle Dance Company, white road Dance Media, Peter Sparling Dance Company, Detroit Dance Collective, Louise Richilin LA Dancers, Stefanie Nelson Dancegroup, and Michigan Dance Project. Additionally, in 2011, under the moniker Boy Friday, Erik creates progressive and surreal works of dance-theatre. Coupled with performing, Erik has choreographed and instructed at numerous dance institutions including The Ohio State University, Eastern Michigan University, Saginaw Valley State, American College Dance Festival, Brighton Dance Festival, and many more. His creative work generated through Boy Friday, embeds interdisciplinary inquiry within a movement praxis, while placing the human body and experience at the foreground of his work. Erik is particularly interested in investigating the ways in which theatricality and personal histories are imbedded in the weight of the human body in action, and works to bridge these connections in all aspects of his technique class. He also remains an active student in yoga, literature, stilt and other off-ground arts. www.boyfridaycompany.com
