i’ll ask your mom if you ask mine

Presented at the Foundry as part of NACHMO Boston 2024

What are the private moments you feel completely yourself? Moments to explore and experiment in your bedroom? This dance piece explores queer childhood moments of wonder and curiosity through set choreography and an improvisational score. This piece ritualizes the dance space into a meditation on the experience of these hidden moments.
