Performance

Brannigan Dance Works presents Bones,

a full evening of contemporary dance choreographed by Khala Brannigan reflecting nature itself, accessing the innate wisdom and feminine intuition that lives with bodies and the earth. With twelve performers and original music composed by San Francisco Conservatory of Music’s MaryClare Brzytwa and Costas Dafnis, Bones represents death and rebirth – a research of the soul and the resilient self, engaging with the body, and the trauma it has endured, to create something more than the sum of its history. Though these twelve performers may not share the same stories of resilience, Bones aims to depict the truth of equality – digging deeper into our wild, intuitive nature, finding that in the end, humanity shares the same matter.
