All That Lives: Pity Party
About the event
Dance at death's back door.
Sick and tired but not broken!
A celebration of those living life on the edges of being well or well taken care of.
Pulling you through our passages as we sway teetering on the brink of this realm, dancing joyously into the next.
This is an immersive celebration as part of All That Lives, which engages with the politics of 'sickness' and spotlights artists who, in different ways, have unique perspectives on wellness and loss.
Pity Party was made in collaboration with collectives from Latinx culture and those identifying with disability and illness.
