Healing Play

Prioritizing improvisation and collaboration we will play in the forests of dancing and healing.
There are ancient grandmother trees there.
There are baby sprouts of new life growing.
There is death and transformation, fire and wind.

This daily laboratory will welcome your curiosity and concerns. What’s up? What inspires you or prevents you from dancing? What activates or impedes your healing potential? How can art and care be realized as a single project or path within the practices of your life? Yes we’ll engage, both in our experimental play and in our embodied conversations, with land, ancestors, power, consent, pleasure, belonging, and community. Practices will include fake healing, anti-fascist partner dancing, spontaneous writing, heart circle, and connecting through objects.

ith Hennessy, MFA, PhD, is a frolicker, imperfectionist, and witch working in the fields of dance, performance, activism, affordable housing, gay sexuality, and teaching.
