seafoam sleepwalk

A site- specific performance commissioned by The La Jolla Playhouse for the inaugural 2014 WOW Festival. Twist created a fantasy that emerged from the Pacific ocean and appeared at the water’s edge; epic and intimate, a tale spun around the mythic birth of Aphrodite, goddess of beauty love and desire. Japanese master musician Yumiko Tanaka’s created a live soundscape that summoned the ocean creature to the audience gathered on the sands of La Jolla Shores for this one of a kind event. A performance that invited the audience, public, surfers and those who happen to stumble upon this unfolding ocean event, to dream awake collectively before they return from whence they came.
