Commissioned by and for UNA Danza Joven at La Universidad Nacional de Costa Rica, premiere at Teatro de la Danza in San José, Costa Rica June 2022.
30 minute group work.
Las Reservas is a reminder of the manifold layers of what it means to grieve and how it feels to remember love, while we continue to honour the dead. Recognizing the repetitious cycles of both life and history, I hope this work can for a moment in time provide a space for both personal and global reflection.
My deepest gratitude for the Embassy of Canada to Costa Rica for the support in making this project possible. Thank you to Fito Guevara, Rodolfo Seas, and Florencia Chaves for coordinating and producing this production.
