Around the Block

Inspired by recent time spent in New York, MovEnt Artistic Producer Day Helesic creates Around the Block, a full-length dance work reflecting the energy of the city and the people who live there. A physical essay of boldness and intensity, four dancers travel the streets of Manhattan in a desire to find connection within the chaos.
