uncover

Amplifying the feminine voice, a solo dancer mirrors the fragile and fierce hold we have on life, on top of a continually destabilizing environment.

uncover is currently a 15-minute tour-ready stand alone solo, and is also currently seeking local and international residencies to develop a full-length work engaging five fierce female dancers/voices, all on unstable surfaces.
