Here are a few factoids to get you warmed up for local legend Catherine Cabeen's dance piece, Fire!

The Saturday performance of Catherine Cabeen and Co.'s Into the Void is SOLD OUT. We do a waiting list for any sold out shows. The waiting list will be started when the box office opens each day for that evening's performance only. You can call or come by in person, but the waiting list is not available online. We will take care of the transaction when you contact us (so have your Visa or Master Card ready!).

Here's what's been written about Into the Void so far:

"Seattle dancer-choreographer Catherine Cabeen explores a dreamlike Void" - Seattle Times

by Josef Vascovitz

There was a narrative, it emerged in certain passages: with boy meets girl, is confronted by a rival, fights and looses but is nevertheless the winner anyway; but the bigger story of freedom, of beautiful, unrestrained euphoric freedom that in it's-self, reaches to an epiphany of spiritual awakening and expression became the flying carpet ride I took. Piggybacked upon the predictable story of meeting, analogous of base human interaction and how being changed by the emergence of a new, better truth is the giddy thrill.

Tonight’s opening of Catherine Cabeen’s Into the Void is her first opportunity to showcase her own ideas in an evening length performance.  Don’t assume though that what you will see is a freshman effort.  Her resume is long and varied and some would say crowned with her time with Martha Graham Dance Company.  She is very much a multi-disciplinary producer with dance being only a part of her of vision.

Catherine Cabeen has been busy in the months leading up to this weekend’s world premiere of Into the Void and has a smaller piece happening across town in The Variety Show. Make your Friday or Saturday a Catherine Cabeen double feature by hitting up Into the Void at 8pm and then moving over to ACT for the 10pm performance. Here’s a special offer from Spectrum:

Bring your OtB/Cabeen ticket stub to ACT 10PM performances this weekend or ANY Spectrum performance NEXT weekend and get 2 for 1 tickets!

This Friday we'll be opening up the lobby and bar at OtB at 5pm to screen Low Lives 3. This international exhibition of live performance will feature 5 minute clips of performances from around the world, all leading up to a special livestream of Catherine Cabeen and Company's Into the Void at 8pm.

Michael Upchurch at the Seattle Times recently sat down with Catherine Cabeen to talk about Into the Void. Read his preview and extended Q&A to learn more about the production.

1. Catherine Cabeen danced with legendary choreographer Bill T Jones from 1998-2005. Jones, who was one of the recipients of the 2010 Kennedy Center Honors (alongside Oprah and Paul McCartney), trained Catherine to dance the roles that he had originally created for himself.
