Get ready to witness a fusion of artistic brilliance that transcends boundaries and ignites the stage. Join us for a remarkable program bringing together three globally acclaimed choreographers: the visionary Gustavo Ramirez Sansano, the beloved Whim W’Him favorite Ihsan Rustem, and our own illustrious Olivier Wevers. Prepare to be moved as we bring our 14th season to a close with SPRING ’24.

In his Seattle premiere, Gustavo Ramírez Sansano is one of Spain’s most internationally acclaimed artists, both as a choreographer and artistic director. He was Artistic Director of Luna Negra Dance Theater from 2009 until 2013, and now combines his work as a freelance choreographer with Proyecto Titoyaya, the Spanish dance company he founded in 2006 with Veronica Garcia Moscardo.

Returning for his fourth creation on the company, Switzerland-based Ihsan Rustem is a Whim W’Him favorite and is the Artistic Director of the Swiss dance company Cie. La Ronde,  founded in 2020 with choreographer Cathy Marston, and the Resident Choreographer for the NW Dance Project in Portland where he has created twelve works to date. 

Spring ‘24 includes yet another exquisite new creation from Whim W’Him Founder and Artistic Director, Olivier Wevers.

As the curtain falls on this season, don’t miss this extraordinary opportunity to experience the magic of contemporary dance at its finest. Performances run at Cornish Playhouse at Seattle Center on May 10, 11, 17 & 18 and at Vashon Center for the Arts on May 15. Purchase tickets today!
