Christal Brown's Inspirit Dance: "What We Ask of Flesh"

Past event
Nov 9, 2023, 7:30 to 9 PM

See the premiere of choreographer Christal Brown's evening-length dance and installation-- a soulful, profound performance that's a physical examination of the capacity of human life and the intricacies of the mind.

Each show includes special interactives, like improvisations and videos; hanging scrolls featuring the dancers' writings; "ancestor plates," an offering of nourishment to our past, present, and future selves; a custom-designed tarot deck, and post-show talkbacks. Audiences are invited to write and draw their memories and ancestors' names on a scroll that will travel to each venue on the tour, creating a tapestry of collected memory.

Showtimes: Thursday 11/9 at 7:30 PM, Friday 11/10 at 7:30 PM, and Saturday 11/11 at 2:00 PM.

Tickets: $25 general public | $20 Middlebury ID holders | $10 Youth (Under 21) | $5 Middlebury students, at http://go.middlebury.edu/tickets
