enVISION Cultural Calendars

As part of American Dance Festival’s 89th Season, ShaLeigh Dance Works presents enVISION: Sensory Beyond Sight, an immersive and inclusive performance that does not require a viewer’s vision.

Specifically conceived with and for individuals who are low-vision and blind, the work proposes a new sensorial experience of dance and theater. It will be presented to a live audience who can choose to experience the show blindfolded and will invite six audience members to be guided by a performer into the setting of the work, over a specific journey that tells a collective story through textures, movements, sounds, music, scents, storytelling, and audience participation. Participatory audience members who are sighted will wear a cover over their eyes as they enter the work until the end of the performance, allowing both sighted and unsighted people to share the experience.

June 3rd-5th
Friday, Saturday, & Sunday at 7:30pm and matinees on Saturday & Sunday at 2pm
Doors open 45 minutes before showtimes for pre show experiences
