“Running out” deals with the passage of time and changing circumstances. Inspired by the idea of “going,” this evocative work of dance-theater invites audiences to reckon with impermanence in our fast-paced and rapidly-changing lives. The work honors and explores the lasting impact of our fading personal histories. As time progresses, we carry with us the echoes of cherished relationships and belief systems that have shaped our lives. This project invites reflection on how we can honor what we've lost while remaining grounded in the present and inspired for the future.
