She also published her documentary "Streb: Pop Action" showcasing some of the rehearsals and dances she has created at SLAM and giving insight into her life and career.

Streb is known for “A preoccupation with movement and itself was symptomatic of a trend that was altering the traditional profile of modern dance.” [7] She has been creating works from 1975 to the present and is known for her outrageous risk taking and experimental shows she puts on.

She inquired about movement and the suppositions that the dance world created; and integrated actions and principles of the circus, rodeo, and daredevil “stunts.” [8] She is interested in the effects of gravity, math, and physics on her choreography.

[9] She wanted to gain a better understanding of the effects of movement on matter so she studied math, physics, and philosophy as Dean's Special Scholar at New York University.

The performers also can be found launching through the air in “Quick succession with timing so precise that they just miss occupying the same space at the same time.” [8] Streb's work is extremely demanding and necessitates endurance, dexterity, great physical strength, and the ability to be daring.

I let it go, which was a good thing.” But says, “I still let extreme things happen to me.” [9] In her recent years, productions have become less harsh and she has begun incorporating texts, videos, and projections of slides.

Within her video collaborations, she incorporates camera angles that appear to evade gravity and make the dancers bound off and crash into the edges of the monitors.

The dancers who train under Elizabeth Streb are taught to follow movement's natural force to the edge of real danger.

You can stick a high C next to a low F-flat, whereas you couldn’t connect a move where you’re 30 feet in the air and falling, then skip a spot in space, land on the ground, and walk away.

Staged by LIFT, the London International Festival Of Theatre, Surprises: Streb was an event on a scale never before seen in the UK, thrilling spectators not only locally but across the planet.
