The Wallis Presents Mix of Dance, Mariachi, Classical Music and More in Pop-Up Outdoor Theater in August

Summer @ The Wallis continues to welcome live audiences back with an entertaining mix of live hip hop and contemporary dance programs and Mariachi, classical and pop music performances running from August 7 - 28, 2021, in a spectacular pop-up outdoor theater - a theater without walls - at the Wallis Annenberg Center for the Performing Arts.

The eclectic programming, which follows a five-week run of Tom Dugan's one-man show Tevye in New York! closing on July 25, includes the engaging chamber music ensemble Salastina (August 7); the world premiere of Heidi Duckler Dance's site-specific work The Chandelier, based on Brazilian author Clarice Lispector's novel of the same title (August 12-15); and The Wallis debut of Versa-Style Dance Company, which presents its latest hip-hop dance-theater production, Box of Hope (August 19-21).

In addition, Quattrosound shakes up Summer @ The Wallis with its engaging blend of jazz, rock and classical music (August 25); Mariachi Arcoiris de Los Angeles, the world's first LGBTQ+ mariachi band, delivers sounds and rhythms from south of the border (August 26 and 27); and acclaimed recording artist and celebrated singer Ty Taylor, "a modern-day James Brown" (Rolling Stone), caps Summer @ The Wallis with an evening of classic and nouveau standards (August 28). Cinema programming will be announced shortly.

Summer @ The Wallis celebrates the return of in-person audiences while maintaining a commitment to the health and safety of staff, artists and patrons. All shows begin at 8 pm; single tickets are now available. (Program details below.)
