Equal parts living sculpture and ecstatic performance catharsis, this powerful ritualistic work by Moroccan choreographer Bouchra Ouizguen offers an experience both intimate and universal. Presented in nontheatrical spaces with a 22-member collective of Moroccan and Minnesotan women, Ouizguen’s mystical music and movement event has been riveting audiences throughout the world.
