_________________________________________
A new immersive dance show created by Keone & Mari Madrid and Hideaway Circus will premiere in San Diego, California this summer titled BEYOND BABEL. Starring Keone and Mari in the lead roles, the production is inspired by the classic tale of Romeo & Juliet and current social stories from all over the world. BEYOND BABEL is told entirely through the style of West Coast Urban Dance and will begin preview performances this August in a new immersive theater space near Downtown San Diego.
BEYOND BABEL is about the division of families, friends, and a community of people as authorities decide to build a wall between them. We follow two divinely linked lovers as they reconcile with the rising tensions of a populace cut in half. The show is set to a contemporary soundtrack and features a cast of twelve elite dancers.
The production features a special immersive seating design; the orchestra sections move forwards and backwards laterally throughout the theater. Since the orchestra seat sections move, the audience experiences multiple perspectives of the performers and sets. BEYOND BABEL features large crochet backdrops, art installations, and yarn-based props created by artist London Kaye.
We're so excited to share our next dream project with you all. For tickets visit beyondbabelshow...

Keone and Mari, I love your storytelling thru dance. This behind the scenes look is totally part of that! Thank you thank you thank you for what you do. As a person who grew up immersed in the Christian faith, I really feel it coming thru in your dance, that connection to each other and to the message in the music and story. But I really appreciate that it never feels preachy!

"Our job is not to figure out the 'how'. The 'how' will show up out of the commitment and belief in 'what'. -Jack Canfield
Hi Kathu!! I dont know you lol. But Belief is half where there to where you need to go. Get in tune with Spirit, pray, do some reasearch into dance, watch videos Andy practice in your room, freestyle at parties. Just live in dance. As you listen to music imagine some steps. Learn the basics and build upon it. Allow your passion to move you and then build that into habits, you can commit!
I know you can do it bro!
Remember, every pro started as a beginner.
God Bless and much love!!

Greatly enjoyed Ruth. Glad to see you forging your own path and not chasing the whims of reality TV. As a crafter, I would like to hear more about the crochet. 8-) Are there plans for the show to travel?
