Neve Mazique-Bianco: Lover of Low Creatures
Sara Porkalob will direct this world premiere from Neve Mazique-Bianco, a disabled dancer and choreographer who incorporates movement from contemporary, jazz, and ballet. This show promises to be a "sung-through Nubian musical ballet that tells the coming-of-age story of a young, biracial, disabled, queer child growing up deep in the heart of white, small-town New Jersey." Mazique-Bianco brings in "punk… vogueing… and Zar, a trance ritual dance originating from the Horn of Africa" to tell the story. I've never seen Porkalob direct a contemporary-dance-musical before, and Mazique-Bianco's work fuses styles I've also never seen before—punk and Zar??—so I can't wait to see this. RICH SMITH

Time to Tell
The latest United Nations climate report states that "Human actions threaten more species with global extinction now than ever before"; a hazy layer of smoke hangs in the air across the West Coast in the summer months; salmon are dying in the Puget Sound. Climate change isn't new, but people are becoming more aware of its imminent dangers. This short, fast-paced hybrid performance "provides an opportunity to complicate our biases and bring our confusions into the light."
