“Swallowed By Sea”, Off-Leash Area premieres 37th original production

Weaving a rich tapestry of a production about beginnings and endings, destruction and renewal, Off-Leash Area’s new mainstage, Swallowed By Sea, is a dance and theater performance that tells an emotional, redemptive story as an epic myth. The artistic contributions to Swallowed By Sea include dancers Christine Maginnis, Gabriel Rodreick, Lexine Samara, Brian Evans, Erin Landers, and Lilly Rossow; choral works by acclaimed choral composer Linda Kachelmeier; sound design and sound engineering by Reid Kruger; animation, video, and projection by Paul Herwig; and direction and choreography by Off-Leash Area founding director, Jennifer Ilse. ***** This performance is created in partnership with Young Dance, whose mission is to transform lives through movement. This activity is made possible by the voters of Minnesota through a grant from the Metropolitan Regional Arts Council, thanks to a legislative appropriations from the arts and cultural heritage fund.
