A production developed through a collaboration of three prestigious former Rolex protégés: Maya Zbib (Lebanon), Lee Serle (Australia), and Mateo López (Colombia). López will be performing in the production alongside two South African dancers.

Within the constant displacement of people and cultures and global demographic shifts, how can we create a space for contemplation and reflection? In today’s metropolises people cross paths continuously and rarely meet. Fear of the other, intolerance, isolation, and loneliness plague our contemporary societies. To engage in an act of love towards a stranger is a resistance. To see each other differently is a decision. To connect to one’s feelings is apolitical act.
