Have you called your mom lately? I have. We talked about how I should be using Vicks before bed because I’m recovering from the flu. While the conversation was good, I doubt it was at the same depth level as the ones Dance Waterloo’s choreographers were having with their maternal figures. Inspired by ideas of generational storytelling, this new collab between Dance Waterloo and the Dougherty Arts Center portrays a discourse in matrilineal inheritances like habits, ideas, and artistic approaches. Through their dance performances, audiences will see how shifts in the narrative do occur but rarely stray too far from the root. “The result is a tapestry of shared experiences,” DAC writes in their event copy, “and surprising departures.” – James Scott
