"Karaokeography" is a novel experience of Karaoke that injects physical performance into the traditionally vocal pastime. 5 dancers (Janoah Bailin, Jenny Dignan, Holly Taylor, Scott McPheeters, Kristen Stake) have prepared a catalogue of pre-choreographed, commonly-known songs – with vocals missing. The audience sings karaoke-style to complete the show. Audience members enter a casual space with room for dancing and socializing, a la any karaoke night, complete with mics and projected lyrics. Dancers complete the evening, celebrating and highlighting the audience members who volunteer to sing.

​Developed with support from the competitive Kindling Fund through SPACE and the Warhol Foundation, "Karaokeography" was first performed at PortFringe 2026, winning "Critics Choice #thisisfringe"

"Like having to go to your cousin’s boyfriend’s wedding and surprisingly having the time of your life. Moments of comedy, poignancy, beauty, ridiculousness ..." (Linda Shary, PF26 Independent Review Team).

"Definitely something I’d want to see and participate in again, and again, and again" (Christina W. Richardson, PF26 Independent Review Team).
