OUR JOURNEY
Cantilever Collective was formed out of a desire to use movement as a catalyst to build community. The group is made up of Los Angeles based dancers: Kya Bliss, Andrea Burr, Kaitwan Jackson, and Himerria Wortham, each bringing with them a diverse background spanning both commercial and concert dance. At its core, the group views movement as healing and a necessity to life. They eagerly embrace dance as a conduit to interdisciplinary play and collaboration. In addition to their stage and film credits, the group hosts monthly movement sessions open to artists of all disciplines.
"[...] their Table Talks proves that they know how to create a dance work." Jeff Slayton,LA Dance Chronicles (2024)

Evening at Highways Performance Space
We are excitedly getting ready for our evening-length performance shows on December 6th and 7th 2024, at Highways Performance Space, Southern California’s boldest center for new performance, film, and visual art.
Dwelling: The Structures that Hold Us is a choreographic exploration of the act of listening. In an increasingly polarized society, how can empathetic listening be used to decrease the gap between us and them, self and other.
This piece is the Cantilever's first evening length production as a collective.
