A very cool collaboration!
Join us as we kick off the opening performance of IMPACT Dance Company’s 30th Anniversary season! IMPACT meets Machmer Media in this collaborative performance and gallery exhibit; a one of a kind event that features an odd group of characters that are as talented as they are quirky.
The show starts with viewing these characters through the lens of Tessa Rehbein Machmer of Machmer Media in the gallery, before moving into the theatre for a performance with dances that range from raucous to poignant and everything in between.

What's the Story?
In December of 2023, Artistic Director Judy Bejarano sat down with Tessa Machmer of Machmer Media to discuss the possibility of a collaboration between IMPACT and Machmer Media. Bejarano loved Tessa's work and was interested in working together to create an exhibit and performance. Throughout the summer, Judy, Tessa and Jenna Smith, IMPACT's Assistant Director met to brainstorm possibilities. They kept coming back to the idea of creating an odd little community of characters steeped in a blend of quirkiness, personality and hidden dimensions. With a shared curiosity and the help of our dancers, SUPER 8 was born. The live performance takes place for two shows only, so don't miss it!

The photographic exhibit will stay up in Bas Bleu into February.
