About this event
Abilities Dance Boston's dancers and composers have partnered with the University of Peradeniya's student dancers and musicians in Sri Lanka to create pieces for a virtual production premiering January 30th at 11:30 am EST (10:00 pm in Sri Lanka). This production reimagines what is possible when we create work that transcends geographic barriers. Through our artistry, we are highlighting intersectional disability and racial equity across the globe. Performance clips will also be presented from our various community engagement programs (Our Space Our Place, Osher Lifelong Learning Institute at the University of Massachusetts Boston, and more). This collaboration is made possible through the hard work of Ashley Fargnoli, MA, LCPC, BC-DMT (Fulbright Scholar & Dance/Movement Therapy Instructor at the University of Peradeniya) and Ellice Patterson, MS (Abilities Dance Founder/Executive & Artistic Director).
