Have You Ever Dreamed of Whales?




Dance Like No One is Whale Watching invites you to a communal space for dreamers, dancers and orca whales.

Dance Like No One is Whale Watching is an immersive experience and play space created to evoke the fantasy of life as an orca whale. The cosmically charged performance and encounter is wrapped in a billowy inflatable and illuminated with visuals from the open ocean. Audiences’ names are transformed into whale calls and woven into an ethereal soundtrack.  Participants are guided through a series of mystic exchanges, collaborative games, and otherworldly performance, inspired by the mighty and mythical existence of orca whales.
