Presenter Details

  • Name: ISHIDA Dance Company
  • ISHIDA is a new world-class contemporary dance company based in Austin, Texas, featuring venerated dancers from many of the top companies in the world (Houston Ballet, San Francisco Ballet, Ballet BC, Netherlands Dance Theater, Kidd Pivot, Hubbard Street). ISHIDA blends contemporary dance with theatrical elements while retaining the physicality and beauty of the human form from traditional ballet. ISHIDA presents unique narratives relevant to a modern audience that explore archetypal themes and invite existential questions: Where do we come from? Who are we? Where are we going? Such works enable audiences to gather meaning and emotional connection. ISHIDA’s poetic narratives intuitively prompt introspection to lead to greater kindness towards oneself and otherness.
