FACT/SF presents its 5th Annual Summer Dance Festival bringing together an array of contemporary dance works by choreographers from the Bay Area and beyond. FACT/SF Artistic Director Charles Slender-White, explains, "The purpose of the Festival is to juxtapose a variety of works to spur dialogue, support artists and artistic growth, and present to audiences a range of perspectives."
The 5th annual Summer Dance Festival contains two programs, seven artists/companies and a total of nine premiers. Program One, which runs August 16, 17 and 18, features the world premiere of Half Time, Full Out by FACT/SF and the West Coast premiere of Varvara by Jenna Riegel (Amherst, MA). Program Two runs August 23, 24 and 25 featuring seven world premiere works by the Bay Area's FACT/SF, Maxine Flasher-Duzgunes, Zoe Huey, and Erin Yen alongside visiting artists Sophie Allen (Chicago, IL) and Summation Dance / LA (Los Angeles, CA).
The FACT/SF Summer Dance Festival is part of FACT/SF's Fieldwork, a set of programs that provide resources and opportunities to contemporary dance artists from the Bay Area and beyond. All artists in Program Two were curated by an eight-person panel via an open application process. FACT/SF received applications from 50 artists, and all were paid to apply. In its inaugural year, Heather Desaulniers of DanceTabs calls the FACT/SF Summer Dance Festival, "a very strong debut and a great addition to the SF dance festival circuit."
$15 - $35.
