We are so incredibly grateful for our time in Xichang. We were able to share Red Tiger Tails with about 300 festival audience members, connect with colleagues in physical theatre from all over the world, see beautiful and inspiring performances from other companies, and achieve our goal to BUILD BRIDGES WITH ART.

Today we begin our journey home, ready to use all we have learned and experienced to create more art that connects ❤️

We'll continue to share more fun tidbits from our trip over the next few days and weeks!

After 16.5 hours of flying and a whirlwind 8 hour tech, we open Red Tiger Tails in Xichang TONIGHT.

Our first few days in Xichang have been filled with connection, wonder, and delicious food. Today we were so excited to see the set pieces built for us by the talented team at the festival. Tomorrow, we tech!

UMO Ensemble at Seattle Public Theater !

Coming Up Next at Seattle Public:

SQUEEZE Written by Trista Baldwin in Collaboration with UMO Ensemble and Associate Artists.
In a landscape shaped by climate change, housing insecurity, wealth disparity, and social disconnection, our characters adapt to seek stability, connection, and space. Meeting in a bar, they ponder, "How did we get here?" Through humor, grace, and physical skill, "SQUEEZE" challenges us to adapt and connect in a world on the edge.
