While this work deals with the difficult themes of apocalypse, existential questioning of time, humanitarian and environmental disasters, the overall expression is poetic, hopeful and uplifting, seeking to provide solace in difficult times.
The amazing cast includes dancers Miryam Coppersmith, Loren Groenendaal, Chloe Marie, and Kate Seethaler and musicians Melinda Faylor (piano and Music Director), Julie Kim (cello), and Mara Mayer (clarinet), and Charlotte Munn Wood (violin).
