All creations pass through a time of being in the dark. It is the time of dreams, illusions, and magic. This evening into the morning event will be a guided physical meditation into the chimerical nature of dance. We will end the day and begin a new one together as we shift our relationship to time and composing space, creating and entering a theater of our own design.
