ShaLeigh Dance Works is developing an immersive and inclusive performance form that does not solicit the viewer’s sight, but rather all their other senses. enVISION: Sensory Beyond Sight will premiere at The Fruit June 3-5, 2022. The work is accessible to people with visual disabilities and to the general public (who can choose to experience the show blindfolded). This multi-phase project has brought together, in a collective creative process, a team of collaborators around a single challenge: to tell a story through dance and theatre beyond their visual dimension, by the elaboration of new atmospheres, and through a close interaction between the performer and the spectator.

“enVISION”, a new work by ShaLeigh Dance Works is supported by The American Dance Festival, MAP Fund, the Mary Duke Biddle Foundation, the Durham Arts Council’s Annual Arts Fund and the North Carolina Arts Council, a division of the Department of Natural and Cultural Resources. They would also like to thank our invaluable community partners Arts Access, Vision InSights, Dark Room Ballet, InSightful Visionaries, and The Fruit.
