Following a powerful run at PRAx in Corvallis, push/FOLD brings our critically acclaimed work Early back to Portland for a three-night engagement at AWOL's Performance Warehouse, March 7-9, 2025. This closing event of push/FOLD's season offers audiences an intimate experience of the company's bold, physically charged storytelling through movement and sound.
Choreographed and composed by push/FOLD's Artistic Director Samuel Hobbs, Early immerses audiences in a visceral world of time and connection, love, and loss. Featuring an original score woven seamlessly with the company's signature athletic and fluid movement, Early has captivated audiences across the West Coast, Canada, and Mexico.

Returning to its original in-the-round staging, each performance promises a deeply personal encounter with push/FOLD's fearless artistry. Featuring both new cast members and original cast members, Early continues to evolve, offering a fresh yet familiar intensity that lingers long after the final note fades.
Show-length: ~60 minutes without an intermission.
