You will never see PAPER the same way again…
‘all. things. PAPER’, UPside Dance Company’s newest daringly delightful performance will premiere on March 11 & 13, 2016, at the Carston Cabaret Theatre in the Wells Fargo Center for the Arts. Eighteen charismatic contemporary dancers ignite the stage in this collage of dance. Each piece illuminates paper and how it impacts our lives: whether it be love letters, childhood paper planes, intricate origami, the endless paperwork we all face, or the yellow post-its that keep it all together. Watch as this ubiquitous, 2-dimensional presence in our lives is transformed into a multi-dimensional cutting edge dance… the irresistible premiere of ‘all. things. PAPER’ will redefine how you see paper.
Sonoma County’s own UPside Dance Company, Co-directed by Kate Vazzoler & Tanya Tolmasoff, is known for bringing innovative contemporary dance to unconventional spaces.
‘All.things.PAPER’ will have 3 full-shows and 1 Demi-Show (Act 1 Only. March 11, 6pm). Ticket Reservations highly recommended
