My close friend's fiancee is a pilobonaught - I'm actually the best man at their wedding next month.
The shadow thing is not really what they do all the time, but it gets a lot of attention after their performance at the Oscars. Incidentally, that wasn't entirely the "main" company - it was a couple of the regulars and some people they picked up for that specific performance. The company does a LOT of touring.
Baraka, the company does well. It's not a LOT of money, but with a decent salary, health insurance, and lots of steady work, it's much better than most small dance companies do. Your comment notwthstanding, Pilobolus is a coveted gig, and demands absurd amounts of strength of it's dancers. There's no better use for talented dancers than dancing, which is what this company does.
