Sarah Bush Dance Project creates and presents multimedia dance theater through innovative artistry and community interaction. SBDP creates art that reminds audiences of the power and compassion in ourselves and others, bolstering a resilient hope for humanity.
Since 2007, Sarah Bush Dance Project has produced five critically acclaimed repertory shows in the Bay Area: Home, Rocked by Women, This Land, Spirit & Bones, and Un-Changing Nature . In 2020 SBDP had an artistic partnership with Audubon California with Six Foot Wingspan, was the artist in residence at Richardson Bay Audubon Center and Sanctuary, and made a dance film at Audubon's Bobcat Ranch. 2021 will bring a larger collaboration with many talented artists for another dance film.
The SF Chronicle said of the sold-out Spirit & Bones premiere, “Dance makers want to reflect the zeitgeist in their productions. But every so often the planets align, and a long-planned work ends up tapping the cultural climate so aptly that it doubles as a rallying cry.” Of the outdoor landscape series, This Land, the Huffington Post said, “the drama of Bush’s highly charged movement is meant to renew our sense of self, our sense of place and community.” The SF Bay Guardian reviewed Rocked by Women, a coming of age story honoring the history of women’s music, as “a weighty yet explosive expression of the power of an indomitable spirit and embracing courage.” A Homeward audience member reflected, “Homeward stirred memories and longings for relationship, for meaning, for home. Such a feast of choreography.”
