Brett Ishida does more than create intricate, fluid choreography. She’s also trained in literature and education. ISHIDA Dance combines all her expertise and passion in their works, and the latest premiere covers ground as rich and diverse as the dances themselves. Based on Waiting for Godot and Oedipus Tyrannus, the double bill of original pieces manages to interpret themes from Beckett and Sophocles through movement. Ishida herself carefully pores over the sources, interpreting humor and sorrow with knowledge and care. What happens next? An entirely novel way to experience story. – Cat McCarrey
