Gion Shōja is the opening passage of the Japanese epic The Tale of the Heike. Its bells resound with a simple truth: all things are impermanent.
The prosperous must decline. The proud fade like a dream on a spring night. The powerful scatter like dust before the wind.
Against this understanding of impermanence stands the crane, a Japanese symbol of longevity, loyalty, wisdom, and spiritual elevation.
Rise/Fall is informed by Japanese sources and an exploration of stillness, timing, and
transformation. Like each of our lives, this dance holds both realities at once: the fragility of the human body and the possibility that something within us endures beyond time.

Beautiful Frequencies is an evening of storytelling, dance, film, music, and projected images created by choreographer, filmmaker, and storyteller Angie Flanagan.
Like turning the dial on an old radio and catching a voice from somewhere far away, stories of women across generations and across the world emerge through words, movement, music, film, and photographs.
Warm, intimate, and sometimes unexpected, Beautiful Frequencies celebrates the stories we carry and the remarkable ways one life can continue to echo into another.
