WoW Festival’s Dances with Walls

About the Show

The Without Walls (WoW) Festival is a one-of-a-kind event that features over 20 adventurous, site-specific and immersive performances by leading artists from San Diego and beyond. Join a group of barrier-breaking artists and audience members who are defying the traditional theatre experience in exhilarating ways!

Dances with (or against) walls is a strategy that San Diego Dance Theater Artistic Director Jean Isaacs has employed to address the overwhelming number of choices presented by site-specific choreography. By dancing against walls, Isaacs creates a two dimensional form out of a three dimensional genre. The human body viewed moving against an unyielding concrete or stone wall challenges the viewer’s emotional responses by eliciting both vulnerability and stoicism.
