As if everything was perfect

(Work in Progress)

Our world as we know it has been forced to change. As we strive to stay in connection with one another while we dance for both hope and change, we relive memories of connection. It's a story telling of fantasies, nightmares, memories, utopias and what is personal to me and how I have viewed the world during this time of chaos and change. I will be exploring that through an emotional and personal landscape, with my collaborators and eventually community members who are interested in learning and engaging. Through this work, I am also looking at how to peel off the layers of myself that I have had to put up to protect myself to keep building a career in the arts. This dance theater work understands and explores how happiness and sadness are deeply intertwined, and are needed to appreciate both. 

This dance features an original score by Sio Tepper.
