"Portland's all-star rock band Love Gigantic performs Pink Floyd's Dark Side of the Moon in its entirety, accompanied by aerial artist Brandy Guthery, co-director and founder of AWOL Dance Collective and current director of B. Movement Project. The band features an impressive lineup of Portland musicians from The Decemberists, Eels, MarchFourth, and more, creating a live, immersive fusion of rock music and aerial performance."
"Compagnie Hervé Koubi from France returns to Portland with Sol Invictus, presented by White Bird at the Arlene Schnitzer Concert Hall. Founded and directed by Hervé Koubi, the company performs this high-energy, large-ensemble work combining contemporary dance with acrobatics, capoeira, breaking, parkour, and martial arts. Named after the "invincible" sun deity, Sol Invictus explores themes of light, solidarity, and unity through highly athletic choreography, golden costuming and flooring, haze effects, and bold lighting."
