Apologies for our absence. We've taken a brief hiatus while Bridget adjusts to motherhood, but we've got big plans for 2026! On this Giving Tuesday, we want to give thanks to you for all of the support you've given BKirk Dance through donating, sharing our posts, and coming to our shows, etc. We are endlessly grateful for the support of friends, family, and our Seattle dance community.

📣 SHOW OPENS TOMORROW... But we've got one more surprise. "Etymology of Being" is a deep dive into each choreographer's relationship with their own name. It seems only fitting that our performance weekend closes on Mother’s Day. 💗 In honor of all the mothers out there, and this new phase of life for Bridget who is expecting her first (a VERY brief 2 weeks after the show), we’re running a Mother’s Day Special. 👶 💐 Use code DATENIGHTWITHMOM at checkout for a discount on a pair of tickets to any of the 3 shows. *Only applicable to online sales.*💐 Fun Fact: In October, when BKD was invited by @exitspacedanceseattle to perform a snippet of Etymology of Being at LAUNCH, Little Baby was there dancing with us. Most people didn’t know, at that point, but I did, and it made it extra special to premiere a preview of "Etymology of Being" with them onstage with us. 🤰 🗓️: THIS WEEKEND (May 9th - May 11th) 📍: @baseartspace 🎟️: Link in bio 📸: @jazzyphoto
