The immensity of the cosmos as a background to deeper questions about the human experience
The powerful South African pantsula dance style, with its high energy virtuoso footwork, lays a base for this dance dive into our place in the future. The performers respond to the cosmic and spiritual jazz of Alice Coltrane and Bheki Mseleku, and draw on phenomena found in the cosmos as metaphoric inspiration: from the birth of a galaxy to the death of a star.
