Friday-Saturday 6/1-2

New York's Keigwin + Company closes out the inaugural season of the Cowles Center. The troupe, led by Larry Keigwin, takes a seriously fun approach, performing works that celebrate a cheeky take on the relationships between contemporary dance and pop culture. The program includes "Megalopolis" (2009), set to Steve Reich's minimalist tones and M.I.A.'s call-to-arms music, plus the fashionista throwdown "Runaway" and 2004's "Mattress Suite," an exploration into the tricky realm of love and sex. K + C will also premiere "12 Chairs," which takes the game of "musical chairs" to a new level. (8 p.m. Fri.-Sat. $32. Cowles Center, 528 Hennepin Av. S., Mpls. 612-206-3600, www.thecowlescenter.org.)
