bLUr by Kimberly Bartosik/daela is a highly physical and emotionally intense dance piece exploring the haunting impact of witnessing a loved one's overdose. Moving beyond specific narratives of the opioid crisis, the work uses visceral movement to embody the violent cravings and internal battles of substance abuse. Through repeating cycles, bLUr illuminates the urgent fight against these desires and the blurred line between craving and rescue. Experience a raw portrayal of intense longing, forceful intervention, and the struggle for survival.
Ananya Dance Theatre's ANTARANGA: Between You and Me unfolds in a world facing a deep crisis, where the ability to sense and connect with others has largely vanished. A small group of 'humsafar' (fellow travelers) retains extraordinary connecting abilities. Their perilous journeys forge crucial relationships, offering a path toward healing. ANTARANGA explores themes of intimacy, connection, trust, and community among transnational feminists navigating a world struggling to rediscover human connection.
ANTARANGA: Between You and Me is a National Performance Network (NPN) Creation & Development Fund Project co-commissioned by John Michael Kohler Arts Center, Links Hall, The Yard, Dance Place, and NPN. The Creation & Development Fund is supported by the Doris Duke Foundation, the Mellon Foundation, and the National Endowment for the Arts (a federal agency). For more information: www.npnweb.org
