Off-Season: Amanda Krische presents Double Blade

There are some things that happen to you where you think: “Surely, any moment now, someone is going to walk up behind me, tap me on the shoulder, apologize for the inconvenience, and guide me back home to my real life.” Double Blade is an interdisciplinary dance-theater work about the events that come before and after that moment and other such moments, about the things that are hidden, and about the stories we tell to make sense of what cannot be explained.

Jasmine Hearn: Memory Fleet: Time & Trinity

Memory Fleet is a continually expanding, episodic, migrating performance and archive project that builds an alternative archive for the preservation of shared memories and stories that center the work/rest & past/future of the Black people who mother and mentor.

Platform 2026: Secret Gardens

Platform 2026: Secret Gardens, co-curated by Judy Hussie-Taylor and Seta Morton, tends to the relationships between plants and dance; strategic seedings, subterranean root systems, medicinal blossoms, rituals and rabbit holes.

Joan Jonas: The Juniper Tree

In collaboration with Danspace on three evenings in March 2026, world-renowned artist Joan Jonas will present a new iteration of The Juniper Tree, her 1976 performance inspired by a folktale of the same name. The Juniper Tree has a centuries-long history of being told and retold. Jonas turns to this story as a performance vehicle to explore the various roles women play and how they are represented.
