Online - dis/re/connection

<p><span><i>dis/re/connection</i> is a new collaborative performance that explores connection, disconnection, and reconnection. How have we, and do we, connect with each other? With ourselves?

Presented through vignettes, music, poetry, movements, and scenes all created by the ensemble, this meditation poetically asks us to reckon with ourselves and to ultimately persist.</span><u></u><u></u></p>
