About the Performance
Dearest Home (Duet) is an excerpt from the evening length work Dearest Home. The full piece is an intimate dance work focused on love, longing and loss created for six dancers as a series of solos, duets, and one trio—is a love letter to relationships, a meditation on memories, and ultimately, a source of healing.
