About the Event

WADEintoACTIVISM is a 16 day performing arts festival curated and produced by WADE. The festival presents work by female and historically underrepresented artists and conversations with feminist allies surrounding gender-based violence.

The Festival began during the Covid-19 Pandemic lockdown as a response to the global increase of violence against women. It was the first program conceptualized as the backbone of what would later become WADE, because of the felt urgency to bring these topics to the forefront through dance and to give voices to those who systematically felt silenced and overlooked. Its efforts continue today in collaboration with feminist organizations from around the world to galvanize artists and thinkers toward investigation and collective action.

WADE presents the work of the following companies:

  • Vangeline offers a unique connection between Japanese butoh and social activism to address issues of gender inequality, and social justice in order to elevate the visibility of women in butoh and give a voice to the women who have continued to be suppressed throughout history.
  • JENNIFERCHINdance |Jennifer Chin| offers an exploration through movement as a means to begin a conversation, and demonstrates how their inherited Asian cultural experiences continue to influence their movement and connect their communities together.
