Chiron in Leo
This is the tale of Chiron, a dancer whose bout with depression and anxiety summons them back to their childhood wounds to remember a lesson about survival. Chiron in Leo’s tale is inspired by the Greek myth and astrological significations of Chiron, the wounded healer.

In this performance, two friends talk about their mental health as they dance and explore contact improvisation. While the conversations speak to depression, anxiety, and dismantling patriarchy, it is the movement of two Black men that speaks loudest.

Holding Onto Innocence is the result of contending with what we do to maintain our “innocence”.
