URBAN DREAMING - A Movement Opera

URBAN DREAMING - A MOVEMENT OPERA

SEPTEMBER 18–21 & 25–28 2025

Urban Dreaming is an immersive movement opera that transcends traditional storytelling drawing its audience into a visceral journey through our shared human experiences the constraints that bind us and the timeless pulse that unites all living beings.

Set against a backdrop of Austin’s urban landscape this opera fuses contemporary and aerial dance and music to explore the confinement of the human spirit—through walls both physical and invisible. It unearths personal memories and collective trauma transforming them into movement.

At its core Urban Dreaming is about connection—how despite the barriers of time identity and circumstance we remain linked by an invisible thread of universal energy. This opera invites audiences to remember to feel and ultimately to dream together.

As the performers move from isolation to communion the work blossoms into resilience and hope.

Urban Dreaming is not just a performance—it is a call to awaken to remember our sacred interconnectedness and to imagine a world where we move as one.
