New Creations – Whim W’Him @ Whidbey Island Center for the Arts (Langley)

Featuring internationally acclaimed creators Emilie Leriche, Rauf Yasit, and Founder and Artistic Director Olivier Wevers, these new works represent the vanguard of contemporary dance. Emilie Leriche, a French-American choreographer based in Sweden, performs with GöteborgsOperans Danskompani and was a 2015 Princess Grace Award winner. Rauf Yasit, also known as rubberlegz, is the creator of an original movement language that breaks down barriers between dance genres. Born and raised in Germany, Yasit is now a Los Angeles-based choreographer, director, dancer and visual artist. In his third new work of the season, Olivier Wevers continues to explore his fluid movement language and theatricality, which makes Whim W’Him a standout amongst contemporary dance companies.
