HOMEcoming – Summer Highlights and upcoming shows - HOMEcoming… Often summer is different. For many of us we are fortunate enough to have breaks, to travel, to experience some big or small shifts in the routines of work and daily life. For some, summer marks the time between an old chapter and a new one. And then, September calls us back to task, calls us HOME. Save the Date! for our evening-length show, HOME - Dec 9, 10, 16, 17.

Sarah Bush Dance Project (SBDP) formed in 2007 to promote innovative artistry, community interaction and feminist ideals through the creation and presentation of multimedia dance, as interpreted by the artistic work and vision of Sarah Bush.

Early press deemed Bush:
“A force to be reckoned with” (SF Chronicle)
“A modern dance bellwether” (SF Weekly)
and later gave critical acclaim for Rocked By Women:
“a monumental work” (The Huffington Post)
“a weighty yet explosive expression of the power of an indomitable spirit and embracing courage” (SF Bay Guardian)
SBDP’s recent project This Land brings together two great sources of inspiration: Art and Nature. In This Land Oakland, SBDP calls us back to this incredible landscape of Oakland, from the developed and designed to its watery edges, enchanted redwoods and scenic hills.
“Against these spectacular, constantly shifting backdrops, infiltrated by ambient sounds and intentional music, the drama of Bush’s highly charged movement is meant to renew our sense of self, our sense of place and community.”
