An unforgettable piece of dance theater, RoseWater is inspired by the ancestral practice of rosewater baths and the antiquity of the artist’s recipe passed down from her grandmother.

A live, outdoor event to both inform and inspire, delight and denounce, reveal and transform our world. A timely call to reconnect to our ancestors and plumb the past for hope, healing and other treasures. A dancer’s guide to surviving, and thriving, in the wake of environmental racism and the global climate crisis.
