The coming season at the Joyce Theater will include the returns of Twyla Tharp and the “NY Quadrille,” as well as a dance play starring James Whiteside and a debut program from Beth Gill.

To inaugurate the season in late September, five companies and choreographers, including Kyle Abraham’s A.I.M., Ms. Gill and the Donna Uchizono Company, will join together for the second edition of “NY Quadrille,” organized and designed by Lar Lubovitch, UCI Distinguished Professor of Dance. As it was for the first “Quadrille,” a special stage will be constructed for the three-week engagement to allow the audience to view the performances from four sides.
