SAMMAY Peñaflor Dizon: ritual for thrivation no.2
 
Friday, June 10, 8 PM
Saturday, June 11, 8 PM
ODC Theater 
Digital Stream Friday, June 17, 7:30 PM

 

How do we move from a perpetual stasis of survival to palpable thrivation? In a world that has forgotten its inherent responsibility to the earth and each other, ritual for thrivation no. 2 poses ancestral reverence, intergenerational healing, and urban-indigenous futurism as urgent and fundamental to alleviating our current climate crisis.

ASL interpretation will be provided at this event on June 11. Captioning will be available on this Digital Encore. Please contact the ODC Box Office with accessibility requests or questions boxoffice@odc.dance.
