SIDF Winter Mini Fest - Program B
Colectivo Glovo & Khambatta Dance Company
Performance Details :
March 7 & 8 – Colectivo Glovo & Khambatta Dance Company will ignite Seattle with a brand-new collaboration created on location and unveiled while still “fresh out of the oven.” Audiences will witness the mystery and thrill of a work born just moments before it’s seen, alive with the raw energy of invention.
Colective Glovo also presents Alleo. A view from above reveals the tension between what we observe and what remains hidden: light, solitude, and landscape intertwine in a piece that exposes the fragility of privilege and the immensity that overwhelms us. Buy Tickets
