“The phenomenon of life and death was performed with breathtaking vitality and energy.”
HereAfter explores people’s relationship to life and death and what comes next, to beginnings and endings — of a life, a relationship, a job, a building, a passion. Finding words for the unspoken, and movement and music that fills the heart, the universal experience of love and loss are broken wide open with curiosity, compassion, and humor.
Bessie award winning composer Robert Een created the original score.
