Sun.Ergos, a Company of Theatre and Dance presents:
Dancing in the Ashes
When tears wash the windows of our souls, we can see the light again.
Dancer: Dana Luebke
Choreography: Dana Luebke and Erin Thompson
Dancing in the Ashes is an exploration of the gifts that grieving the loss of someone you love can bring. How holding space for both sorrow and joy can deepen our shared human experience as we are invited to simply witness each other’s vulnerability. I believe when we express our own sorrow and loss and bear witness to the sorrow of others, we strengthen connections to our humanity and to others, allowing our hearts to begin heal and attain a sense of peace.
