JEZEBEL | PuSh Festival
Jan 22-23, 2026 | JEZEBEL is a dance performance inspired by the ‘Video Vixen’: female models who appeared in hip hop video clips in the late ’90s and early 2000s. Images in the mass media – and in music videos particularly – often projected the female in a hyper-sensualized way.
Fall(se) Cirque(us)
Mar 21, 2026, World Premiere | At its core, Fall(se) Cirque(us) celebrates the strength, skill, and craftsmanship of the working class. Seven dancers, clad in heavy-duty work pants, perform highly physical, unison movements that challenge the boundaries between physical labor and virtuosic performance.
