Dancing on the Edge of the World is a showcase curated by Joe Landini (SAFEhouse Arts) featuring a wide-spectrum of Bay Area artists and features dynamic movement, provocative performance installations and theatrical experiences.

Joe Landini is a San Francisco-based choreographer/curator and is the co-director of Dog & Pony.

Locally, he has presented his work at the ODC Theater, Z Space, Dance Mission and the Cowell Theater. In 2007, Landini founded a performance gallery in San Francisco’s Tenderloin neighborhood called SAFEhouse Arts (Saving Art From Extinction), where is directs RAW (resident artists workshop) and SPF (summer performance festival). He also directed the West Wave Dance Festival from 2014-2017. In 2012, he received the GOLDIE Award from the SF Bay Guardian for achievement in dance and in 2017, he celebrated his 25th Anniversary of making dances in San Francisco, which included commissions from Nina Haft, Ronja Ver, Amy Lewis and Alma Esperanza Cunningham. Landini’s performance installations are strongly rooted in performativity, deconstruction and phenomenology.
