A Rip in the Sky & Mending the Moon
This project was EDD’s most ambitious collaboration to date with musician/composer, Amy Shelley, poets Serena Chopra and Ian Dougherty, and writer Steph Holmbo. The cast for performances included five dancers, three actors, one poet, and one musician as the group presented a seamless evening of integrated arts, crafting a picture of connectivity with fabric used both literally and metaphorically.
This rendering of remnants comes together with dance, original music, poetry, and theatre to bring the audience into a woven world of images and interactions, exploring the experiences of tearing, fraying, and unraveling; only to question how we approach the curious and sometimes unfathomable task of mending.
