Eleven Eleven is excited to announce their newest venue and collaborator: IMPACT HUB Austin is a Gather venue co-working and event space. “Gather venues is an award-winning group of event spaces where people come together to celebrate life both personally and professionally.”
It is a neighborhood all new to 11:11 finally working our way to Northwest Austin. We are breathing in the hustle of Austin’s best for-profit, non-profit, entrepreneurs, activists, and creatives as they work the day away in the serene setting of IMPACT HUB and exhaling out a new 11:11 performance that playfully moves in and around work stations and extracts the vibe of the historic building to create something that is uniquely us as a community of makers.

Think of a moment in your life that shifted your perception of yourself and how you fit in (or don’t). Becoming a father. Almost bleeding to death. Your first kill. Initiation is a collaborative creation in which the dancers, directors, playwright and musician have worked together over the past three months to generate movement from the inside out. This unconventional group of dancers that includes people of all abilities use dance improvisation, text, and unison movement to create a dance theatre piece that explores their personal truths and a collective rite of passage.
Collaborators/ Performers – Joel Duke, Judd Ferris, Michael Joplin, Juan Muñoz, Francisco Robledo, Dillar Schwartz, Joey Smallets, Aron Taylor
Dance 2
Lapse
By Jennifer Sherburn
Creative Pat’nah Mark Bonus
Original Music by Juliana Sheffield and Billy West
Lighting Design by Natalie George
IMPACT HUB is an architectural playground; once indoor pool and racquet ball court, now modern co-working space, it was a Rec Center for the Texas Rangers (law enforcement). IMPACT HUB holds on to a piece of that history incorporating the old pool-tiles into the interior’s main attribute. Lapse takes a glimpse into that history and imagines the hardworking folks that bustle around the space today.
The pulse of the piece reflects the rash dynamics of the leadership, strengths and moments of deterioration throughout the history the Rangers, while still welcoming the undeniably serene nature of the aquatic inspired space. Playing with direction and perspective helps us explore those strategies employed not only by frontiersman but also those hardworking folks that currently use the space. These folks include tech companies, movie makers, designers and more, coming together from all directions all with unique perspective.
