HOW DO YOU EXPERIENCE A PERFORMANCE?
BY SEEING IT?
WHAT IF THAT’S NOT POSSIBLE?
"Jess Curtis makes the invisible visible... acoustically and haptically (in)Visible challenges the audience to take on new perspectives." -- TanzRaumBerlin

(in)Visible, a new evening-length work by Jess Curtis/Gravity, dislocates vision from the center of your experience. Developed in collaboration with—and particularly focusing on access to culture for—blind and visually impaired audiences, (in)Visible is created and performed by an international cast of six blind, visually impaired and sighted body-based dancer/performers who dance, sing, whisper and feel their way into your consciousness, bringing experimental dance/performance and sensory accessibility practices into a rich and moving interaction.

LightHouse will be taking in the Friday 10/11 show and you can join us for $10 (saving you a visit to the website to make your own purchase and we've picked up the ticket surcharge), and thanks to the generous support of the San Francisco Department of Aging and Adult Services (DAAS), San Francisco residents are FREE.

We’ll start by sharing a bite to eat starting around 5, then venture to the theater together to enjoy the pre-show haptic tour starting at 7. Show will start promptly at 8 and no late seating is permitted. Dinner is optional.

Secure your ticket for this performance by RSVPing to Adult Program Coordinator Serena Olsen at solsen@lighthouse-sf.org or 415-694-7316 and indicate whether you’d like to join the group for dinner beforehand. Audio description and haptic tours will be offered for the duration of the show's run, October 3-13, and other accessibility accommodations are available.
