Gathering (West Coast Premiere)

Southside

Samar Haddad King's Gathering invites you into a woman's shattered memories after her village is bombed on her wedding day. Through song, dance, and puppetry, the Palestinian-American choreographer uses oranges as a cultural bridge, literally placing the fruit in your hands. It's heavy material made approachable through ritual and participation.
