The Hunt is a joyous rebellion—a declaration that play, laughter, and collective delight are essential to our survival. In this dance, performers become a wolf pack, seamlessly shifting between the wild and the human as they chase fleeting sparks of joy. Born from a rehearsal process rich with games, silly duets, and shared howls of laughter, this piece celebrates the transformative power of play and in-person connection. The Hunt reminds us that joy is more than a feeling—it is an act of resistance, a collective refusal to succumb to isolation or despair. It is the primal, radiant insistence that we are alive, together.
