circling

warning sirens

“warning sirens”  is an all female experimental dance score investigating internal states, gesture, not seeing & seeing, the ideas of beckoning, warning, conjuring, and warrior dances to ask the questions:

what are you at war with?

what are you fighting for?

when will you open your eyes?

will you be ready when the sirens call?
