About the Work

EVERYTHING a dance performance installation evoking the ever-expanding universe, transforming the performance space into a constellation of stars and human bodies in various states of formation and explosion. Inspired by astrophotography, string theory, interconnectivity and meditations on space and time. The new dance work weaves together a visual, physical and emotional translation of the cosmos.

And a very special presentation by the participating seniors created from their time in the workshops with Dance Entropy's teaching artists.

Monday, June 13th and Wednesday, June 29th
