LILACS

LILACS is a collection of short dance works by Annika Johansson, each a unique reflection on gender, presentation, grief, and selfhood. The pieces range from theatrical and meticulously arranged, to introspective and improvisatory - creating a rich collage of movement that captures glimpses of the vibrancy of our experiences. The title symbolizes the delicate and impactful nature of these fleeting moments in our lives. Performed by Kendall Edstrom, Annika Johansson, Rachel Lieberman, Judee Shuǐ Xiān, and Elayna Waxse; Lighting Design: Alice Endo
