Here NOW So Long is utterly compelling multimedia dance‑theater work marked by remarkable versatility and choreographic virtuosity of Young Soon Kim. Here NOW So Long explores the turbulence of human emotion through 12 vivid scenes, weaving together panoramic video imagery, a live performance of an original score of guitars and electronics, and the fluid, dramatic movement of WHITE WAVE’s stunning dancers. The work extends and breaks the boundaries of contemporary dance with themes of love, longing, and inner conflict.

The production continues WHITE WAVE’s longstanding collaboration with a team of singularly innovative artists: an original score by Marco Cappelli, visuals by filmmaker Hao Bai, and dramaturgy by James Leverett, former Yale professor. Artistic Director Young Soon Kim creates a movement language that reveres tradition while embracing innovation, reaching into the inner landscapes of imagination, passion, and spirit to generate new expressions of contemporary dance.

Here NOW So Long is the third chapter in Young Soon Kim’s acclaimed Here NOW series, which toured Korea in Seoul, Gwangju, and Seongnam in 2012. The fourth and final chapter, Eternal NOW, premiered at BAM Fisher in 2014.

Artistic Director / Choreographer: Young Soon Kim

Rehearsal Director: Mark Willis

Dancers: Michael Bishop, Kaylan Bradford, John Crim, Benjamin De Andrade, Bella Donatelli, Soomin Eum, Shujung Kim, Ellie Swainhart, Juan David Viveros
