The Games We Play (2023)

Commissioned by The University of Georgia Department of Dance

Choreographed in collaboration with the performers

The Games We Play uses sports culture and childhood games as the context to explore individuals in collective grief, anticipation, joy, hope, devastation, and magic. This work raises the question: what are the agreements, boundaries, and expectations? Through a playful lens, this work investigates the ways that we are shaped by all we have loved and lost and how fiercely we hold onto what we believe.
