About The Event
Wild Despair is dance experience and short film that gives permission to feel the profound heartbreak of our times and transform it into a powerful call for personal growth, collective action, and planetary healing.
Wild Despair invites audiences on a journey through ten emotions. The dance descends from denial through despair and into grief, where we encounter the universality of our humanity. In grief, a space beyond stories and sides, we are able to reawaken and spiral back up into acceptance, healing, and wholeness. Wild Despair reminds us that social change begins with feeling and healing ourselves, so we can show up in service to repair the living world.
