ISHIDA Dance’s much-anticipated winter program “as long as there is in me” features exceptional dancers from across Europe and North America. The program includes the haunting world premiere soul-writer by ISHIDA which follows a woman in a dreamscape where she briefly inhabits the past lives of a beloved wife, a sister, and a mother. Also on the program is the US premiere Waltz by choreographer, actor, and former dancer with Nederlands Dans Theater (NDT) and Ballet Vlaanderen Drew Jacoby and the world premiere It’s Happening Now by esteemed Italian choreographer Mauro Astolfi, Artistic Director of Spellbound in Rome. The evening promises to be a unique opportunity to see critically acclaimed choreography from Europe and the US.

ISHIDA is a world-class contemporary dance theater company based in Houston, Texas and the only company in the US to be nationally recognized in Dance Magazine’s prestigious “25 to watch” list for 2023. ISHIDA features venerated local and international dancers from many of the top companies in the world (Houston Ballet, Boston Ballet, The Joffrey Ballet, English National Ballet, Pacific Northwest Ballet, American Ballet Theatre, Juilliard, Ballet BC, Netherlands Dance Theater, GöteborgsOperan, tanzmainz, Les Ballets Jazz Montreal, Marie Chouinard, Tanztheater Wuppertal Pina Bausch). ISHIDA blends contemporary dance with theatrical elements while retaining the physicality and beauty of the human form from traditional ballet. ISHIDA presents unique poetic narratives relevant to a modern audience that invite existential questions. The work explores archetypal patterns and themes of our psyche such as betrayal, belonging, love and loss, to encourage a tender kindness towards ourselves that extends to others.
