A DREAM IS A HOUSE for remembering the future


Performance, 1 hr

A DREAM IS A HOUSE for remembering the future, created in collaboration by WSU professors Dr. Biba Bell (Dance) and Joo Won Park (Music), is an hour-long immersive performance created for twenty-one WSU dancers and the WSU Electronic Music Ensemble in Minoru Yamasaki’s McGregor Conference Center atrium. A DREAM IS A HOUSE brings sound, light, movement, embodiment, and storytelling together in the cathedral-esque modernism of Yamasaki’s architecture, evoking creative research driven by memory palaces, buildings as bodies, dream scenes, dancing with ghosts, and personal and collective ritual making.

choreographer: Biba Bell
