UPCOMING PERFORMANCES!
I Believe/The Disorder of Things
April 2-4th, 2010
Round House Theatre, Silver Spring
Tickets: HERE
I Believe/The Disorder of Things is the dance-based narrative of self-discovery, acceptance, and celebration of self amidst a backdrop of questioning faith, fighting discrimination, and finding the love within that allows us to transform. Exploring the odd lack of casual human contact brought on by the “Twitter Effect” of a digital society and the quick labels thrust upon individuals based on dress, career, and life choices, I Believe celebrates the movement within all of us while questioning our own impulse to judge.
