ABOUT BETWEEN II 2023 DANCING EARTH’s BETWEEN UNDERGROUND AND SKYWORLD brings to the stage a compelling story of dynamic young people struggling through the Apocalyptic present, with resilience and humor, as they survive the end of one world and dream in a future world of balance, harmony, connection and renewal. Storytelling takes infinite forms with this family friendly narrative with energetic expressive forms becoming poetic and dreamlike, as told through dance, dialogue, song, striking media projections of the Southwest, and unforgettable eco-innovative set design, costumes, handheld lanterns and shadow puppets - all created by intercultural collaborators and visionaries of the future. Dancing Earth offers BETWEEN II as an ancestral and futuristic ritual of the liminal realm, bringing healing and renewal of the creative life force in a portal between underground and sky-world. Co-created with Dancing Earth’s new generation of cooperative artist leadership with BIPOC creative collaborative visionaries of mixed identities in every form, intercultural and ecological diversity reflect each other, in an adaptation of our original contemporary mythologies (BETWEEN UNDERGROUND AND SKY WORLD) that poetically responds to local place, people and season in the living improvisation of our time. |
