I enjoyed last year’s campaign so much that I couldn’t wait to get started again. Together, we raised $8.7 million for our favorite charities. I am proud to say this was the most we’ve ever raised and the biggest annual increase in the history of the campaign. It was truly a fantastic year, and working with so many wonderful and compassionate volunteers was a tremendous inspiration. In fact, my belief that Californians are the most generous people in the world is stronger than ever, and I know that we can set the bar even higher this year.

Sarabande by Johann Sebastian Bach Lighting Design: Walter Holden ​ Costume Design: Christian Squires ​ Wardrobe Assistant: Marge Funabiki ​ Summary Robert Dekkers’ Flutter—which has been noted for its music being something dancers dance against rather than with, was originally staged for Post:Ballet with an all-female cast, an all-male cast, and then a mixed-gender cast; the work has been refocused by Dekkers through the lens of physically integrated dance as a way of highlighting the skills of the individual AXIS dancers as well as how they come together as a cohesive company. “Flutter is a meditation on the relationship between the individual and the collective. It explores the space between masculinity and femininity, form and freedom, effort and pleasure.” —Robert Dekkers Collaborators Robert Dekkers, Choreographer for Flutter is the founder and Artistic Director of ​ ​ Post:Ballet. Collaborating with eclectic artists to present performances that are “anything but risk averse” (SF Chronicle), Robert has created new works for Post:Ballet together with artists working in film, visual art, animation, architecture, sculpture, fash- ion design, and new music.
