SUMMARY:O-Jak Bridge Art & Dance Festival 2025 Presents “Wonderland”
DESCRIPTION:O-Jak Bridge Art & Dance Festival 2025\, “Wonderland” \nDates & Times:\nSaturday\, November 8\, 2025 — 7:30 PM\nSunday\, November 9\, 2025 — 3:30 PM\nVenue: Broadway Performance Hall\, Capitol Hill\, Seattle\n______________________________________________\nAbout the O-Jak Bridge Art & Dance Festival \nFounded in 2022 by MiYoung Margolis\, the O-Jak Bridge Art & Dance Festival has become one of Seattle’s most distinctive multicultural art events — celebrating diversity through dance\, visual art\, live painting\, and fashion.\nThe name O-Jak comes from a Korean folktale about two lovers separated by the Milky Way who reunite once a year on a bridge built by magpies.\nIn that same spirit\, the festival acts as a symbolic bridge connecting cultures\, artists\, and audiences\, uniting them through imagination\, heritage\, and emotion.\nFestival Timeline:\n• 2022 – “The Beginning: Stories of Love” — A debut celebration of love in its many forms\, laying the foundation for O-Jak’s mission to connect hearts and communities.\n• 2023 – “Non-Traditional Swan Lake” — A bold fusion of Korean contemporary movement with classical ballet\, street dance\, and multimedia art that redefined tradition.\n• 2024 – “Scheherazade: One Thousand and One Nights” — A poetic exploration of storytelling and love\, featuring over 80 artists across dance\, fashion\, and live painting.\n• 2025 – “Wonderland” — A global reimagining of Alice in Wonderland\, bringing together over 100 artists and visual creators to bridge East and West\, art and audience\, imagination and reality.\nThrough these productions\, O-Jak has grown from a single-stage performance into a movement for artistic unity and cross-cultural exchange — building bridges not only between art forms but between people.\n________________________________________ \nStep into Wonderland this fall at the 4th annual O-Jak Bridge Art & Dance Festival — Seattle’s most imaginative celebration where dance\, visual art\, music\, and fashion converge on one stage. \nAt its heart\, O-Jak was founded as a cultural bridge — a platform where traditions meet innovation\, and where artists and audiences from diverse backgrounds can come together in dialogue. By weaving dance\, visual art\, music\, and fashion into a single immersive experience\, O-Jak celebrates both heritage and experimentation. More than just a stage\, it is a festival dedicated to community building\, cross-cultural understanding\, and the belief that art can connect us across boundaries. \nFounded and directed by Seattle artist and choreographer MiYoung Margolis\, O-Jak brings together more than 100 international and local artists\, weaving together Korean\, Chinese\, and Cambodian traditions alongside Taekwondo\, Ballet\, and Contemporary dance into a breathtaking tapestry of movement and expression. \n✨ This year’s theme\, “Wonderland\,” transforms the stage into a dreamscape across three immersive acts: \nAct 1: Descent into Wonderland — Alice’s first steps into the surreal\, guided by whimsical ballet\, pantomime\, and ensemble works.\nAct 2: Tea Party\, “Disrupted Time & Space” — A kaleidoscope of surreal trains\, fantastical tea ceremonies\, live painting\, and cross-cultural collaborations that bend reality.\nAct 3: Chess Game & Awakening — A climactic duel of queens\, martial artistry\, and the delicate return from dream to reality. \nBeyond the stage\, audiences will encounter live painting performances\, innovative fashion showcases\, and original compositions\, making O-Jak not just a performance but a fully immersive cultural experience. \n🎭 Participating Artists by Act\nACT 1\nMiYoung Margolis Dance Collective – Korean contemporary fusion\nContemporary dance\, ‘Feeding the Beast’ presented by Alexandre Kronz Dancers\nAdage Ballet Academy – Ballet & contemporary trio dance\nJoseph Ehrenpreis – Guitarist & composer for festival’s original music \nACT 2\nCyrus Khambatta – Khambatta Dance Company – Contemporary duo dance\nCristian West’s Western Washington University Dance Team – Contemporary dance\nAmy Sun – Traditional Chinese Dance UW\nDany Srey – Traditional Khmer blessing dance\nJaime Waliczek : Jerboa Dance Company – Duo Acrodance\nJessica Kilpatrick – Kilvani Designs Fashion show\nYooSho Nam – Live painting on stage \nACT 3\nMorado Korean Dance – Traditional Korean dance\nBrittany Parker & Coalescence Dance Company – Broadway jazz dance\nBellevue Tae Kwon DO – MooHan (Infinity) Taekwondo Demo Team – National award-winning martial arts performance \nVisual & Multimedia Collaborations (all acts)\nSus Studios – Immersive projection backdrops\nAubree Barber – Analog projection artist \n🌟 Supported by the Consulate General of Korea in Seattle and Gold Sponsors Chan Seattle\, Dark Arts Software\, Gallery B612\, GolMok Market Bar\, Nana & Nani Interior Design & Renovation\, Occhi Belli\, Soul to Seoul\, with Silver Sponsor Shared Tea Chinatown and Raku Shabu Shabu\, O-Jak has become one of the Pacific Northwest’s most dynamic and inclusive festivals — a bridge that connects communities through art\, dance\, and shared imagination.
