Built on Stilts Festival

The Built on Stilts Dance Festival is comprised of work by members of the Vineyard Community and professional performing artists from the island and beyond.  Over the years, the event has showcased ballet, modern, hip-hop, jazz, tap, breakdance, belly-dance, tai chi, movement theater, circus arts, pilates-based dance, mime, improvisation, spoken word, and of course, a bit of stiliting.  

Each performance opens with an improvisational drum circle open to all willing musicians.
