Memories are always a mix of traces of sensations overlaid with emotions, mingled with interpretation, and filled in with imaginings.

 

“Memory Play” is an innovative series of three contemporary dance pieces that investigate memory through dance and projections. Each piece studies a distinct aspect of memory: the fragmented recollections of victims of violence, the idealism of nostalgia, and the surreal nature of déjà vu.
