The dancers inhabit a shifting environment of darkness and light, making sense of the ongoing change that is life, and the audience, seated on three sides of the stage, shares this intimate landscape. » More Information SOON FESTIVAL Filament October 1-3, 2010 Festival pass = $35 | Individual ticketed events = $15/10 Many events FREE!
