BOOST dance festival

Produced by eXit SPACE | NOD Theater, the BOOST Dance Festival is an annual opportunity for Seattle contemporary dance artists who are both emerging and veteran dance-makers to present work alongside one another for an ever-broadening audience. BOOST is known for its party-like atmosphere where festival producers encourage dialogue amongst patrons between dance works as well as audible support during the show for the artists being presented. The atmosphere is uniquely curated to center the joy of live art, new dance, and community living at the heart of the experience.

BOOST is committed to the ongoing development of the Seattle dance community, curation of new dance works, and representation of diverse artists who reflect our whole community and city. Marlo Martin (BOOST Producer) is committed to an equitable application process and strives to select a wide range of artists and choreographers in terms of ethnicity, race, gender, and sexual orientation. This year, BOOST returns to its home at eXit SPACE | NOD Theater in Capitol Hill, Seattle, for its 10th season on March 14-16, 2025.

This year’s artists are:
