"A brilliant take on how to foster new collaboration!"

The Miniball crew reached out to eight of the most brilliant, provocative, boundary-smashing Philadelphia artists- with no previous collaborative history- paired them together, and asked them to devise a SMASH hit with only four hours of creation time and five guiding values: wild, experimental, loose, delicious, and abundant.

Ninth Planet’s Nia Benjamin of Fringie Award-Winning High Noon is devising with The Juba House Co-Founder and Leeway Transformation Awardee Mawu Ama Ma’at G. Oyesii on GODBODY.

“a godbodycomplex. a fantasy. non-binary dreaming over corn soup. measurements and memories. we burn, we simmer, we boil, we fry, we become and we are always taking our time.”


Dance Luminary and 2022 BIPOC New Work Track Adjudicator Rhonda Moore and Carne Viva Dance Theatre Director and 2022 BIPOC New Work Track Awardee Chachi Perez are teaming up to conjure multigenerational movement magic.

Shapeshifter extraordinaire Rose Luardo of Pedestrian Circus is colliding with Pig Iron grad and "professional idiot" Ryan Pater to alchemize their clown powers for The Gap in the Gap.
“Ryan and Rose met at a film fest in your backyard. You were showing Koyaanisqatsi. We hated it. Face paint and a few improvised moments later, they formed a denim union. The performance begins now.”

Dancer, organizer, and Dirt Baby Farm co-owner Amalia Colon Nava is blending up a nourishing art smoothie with mover, musician, and film maker Micah Lat.

The results? You'll have to find out yourself.
