We are emerging from a time of pronounced loss – lost lives, lost paths, lost rights. We buried loved ones during the pandemic, saw our leaders throw away our civil protections: voting rights, Roe v.

Choreographer Deborah Slater and playwright Eugenie Chan unite with composer Beth Custer and DSDT dancers to take an experimental deep dive into this loss, exploring how everyday folks find hope.
“Because what if something better is possible, is coming, is just around the corner.

What if I have to be brave and honest and vulnerable and what if that helps?
