🌌 Dark Sky Percussion Makes First Finals Appearance in Seven Years

Video by Paul “Sal” Salazar

With rolling fence props staged such that they always split the performers apart from each other, the 2026 Dark Sky Percussion production “On the Outside Looking In” spoke to feelings of otherness young people commonly face as they mature. It was almost poetic, then, that a show about being an outsider would be the one to propel the Jurupa Valley, CA group back into finals for the first time since 2019. 

Videographer Paul “Sal” Salazar is well-acquainted with the ensemble, and joined them for their milestone finals performance.
