Experience an evening of innovative dance from eight local choreographers – joyous, raw, beautiful, provocative, personable. A new generation challenges themselves to capture the duality of human beings as creatures of both reason and instinct. Themes explore the introspective, the body as raw material, the aches of passion and escape, and the struggle to find identity. Expand to a voyage through the helix of human potential as it explodes into unique forms, transmitting knowledge and awareness, and seeking to resolve a karmic debt.
