​about the cabaret

The inaugural Off-Kilter Cabaret explored the theme “Organ Recital,” which asked artists to center a performance work around a bodily organ, and which showcased seven unique artists from a range of artistic disciplines including dance, puppetry, spoken word, theater, and storytelling.
 
The cabaret, curated by the Off-Kilter Leadership group, included Braille, Atlas O Phoenix, Daniel Reiva, Amy Salloway, Pat Samples, Scott Sorensen, and Young Dance.

Off-Leash Area, under co-artistic directors Jennifer Ilse and Paul Herwig, has a 24-year history of presenting original interdisciplinary performance work. The Off-Kilter Advisory Group and Selection Panel from the disability community also include: writer and storyteller Amy Salloway, arts accessibility consultant Jon Skaalen, and Sam Jasmine, host of the Disability and Progress program on KFAI. Off-Leash Area partnered with Young Dance, whose mission is transforming lives through movement.

thank you to Young dance, our organizational partner!

Since 1987, Young Dance has encouraged youth in our community to build body and spirit through the art of dance. Our mission is to transform lives through movement. We are an inclusive community where creativity flourishes, encouraging personal and artistic excellence through diverse forms of dance.
