Become a supporter of Crossings, a multi-disciplinary production seeking discovery through collaboration. Three teams—each featuring a dancer, musician, and poet—will combine skills and insights to present a new brew of performance in three performances at Performance Works NorthWest on June 10, 11, and 12!
A Supporter gets access to supporter-only behind the scenes video, photo and updates of the pieces as they are developed in rehearsal, as well as early access to reserved tickets and an invitation to the subscriber-only preview performance! Behind-the-scenes video is delivered two times in the weeks leading up to the show via private YouTube links for easy access. Physical items like Buckmxn Journal copies, can be picked up in person at the performances!
About Crossings
The three collaborating organizations, Performance Works NorthWest, Portland Jazz Composers Ensemble, and Buckmxn Journal, place the creative impulse completely in the hands of the artists, intentionally selecting creators who are also adept performers. This is a grand confluence focused deliberately on collaboration—dancers Sophia Tweed Ahmad, Danielle Ross, and Akela Jaffi; musicians Michael Gamble, Machado Mijiga, and Cyrus Nabipoor; and poets Rich Perin, Emmi Greer, and Carolyn Supinka; don’t know each other but will dare to create together. We can’t tell you what these artists will do just yet, and we like it that way. But we do know that you can expect a surprising, genre-defying show by some of Portland’s most captivating talent.
