Led by Director Claudine Naganuma, dNaga explores the archetypal relationship between moms and their daughters. The work is a salve for healing in times of upheaval.
Mothers demonstrate great strength, courage and wisdom. How can we learn, honor and use this investigation of mothers to grow into our best selves.
dNaga’s work examines the tools we already own through our birthright. They will serve us to open our warrior heart that guides us as we fight for justice and peace.
The work integrates audio interviews conducted by Claudine Naganuma, new music composition by Joel Davel and Indigo Mateo. Choreography by Claudine Naganuma and dNaga dance co. members.
