Andrea Peña | PuSh Festival

Jan 31 + Feb 1 | Tickets on sale soon! BOGOTA at The Playhouse Theatre. BOGOTÁ’s raw, physical experience of transmutation and resurrection constructs a brutalist landscape from choreography infused with magic realism and the resilience of deviant bodies within the post-colonial era.

In Practice | PuSh Festival

Feb 2 | Join PuSh Festival Artist in Residence,  Majula Drammeh and explore how to create inclusive spaces that prioritize visibility, agency, and transparent power dynamics, while honoring the knowledge that everyone brings. 

In Practice | Mar 9

Mar 9 - with Adam Grant Warren| As we continue to create more inclusive spaces -- as we open the doors on an art form known for asking too much of even the most virtuosic bodies -- how do we safely and respectfully challenge the full spectrum of bodyminds who now want to join us in dance?
