BodyVox presents:
DRAWING ON THE WALLS
Always compelling, remarkably entertaining, and consistently original, Chamber Music Northwest and BodyVox will once again unite live chamber music with bold contemporary dance in their tenth collaboration, Drawing on the Walls. This World Premiere production features the distinguished wind quintet WindSync, renowned for its dynamic artistry and innovative spirit. Following recent collaborations—NINETEEN*TWENTY (Akropolis Wind Quintet, 2022) and Beautiful Everything (Imani Winds, 2024)—WindSync will partner with BodyVox’s choreographers and dancers to create an evening that honors both the voice of the soul through music and the expressive power of the body through dance.

The dance company's trademark humor (and Champagne for the audience) bring some welcome fizz to reimaginings of "Romeo and Juliet" and "A Midsummer Night's Dream."
