DUSK/NIGHT/DAWN
Presented by Vertical Dreamscape
VERTICAL DREAMSCAPE is a dance collective created by Donna Carnow & Gina Alm. Donna Carnow is a US National Pole Art Champion & aerial pole artist. Gina Alm is a multi-disciplinary artist and performer. The pair have worked together since 2021.
“Dusk/Night/Dawn is a breathtaking, kinetic, and abstract performance. This surreal show features some of the most incredible aerial pole I’ve ever seen, interwoven with dance, balloon popping, and a pillow. A blend of whimsical and intense darker moments. It takes you on a journey that lingers long after the final act, sparking conversation and reflection. We have people from 2-3 hours away drive to see this production at our festival, and the entire sold-out theater gave it a standing ovation.
I truly don’t know of another show like this. It’s an experience that must be seen to be fully appreciated—videos simply can’t do it justice.”
