A spokesperson describes the event as follows:
“...For this early preview of To Leave You, director and choreographer Robyn Mineko Williams presents a cinematic performance that explores the impressions we leave on—and for—one another as we live and pass on. Williams is joined by a dynamic team of acclaimed collaborators, including dancers Jessica Tong and Jason Hortin, composer/musician Nate Kinsella, and visual artist Julia Miller. Seamlessly blending mediums, this dreamlike memoir of a performance reveals the imprints we leave on those we encounter in life—tangible and intangible, in words, gestures, and memories. To Leave You is a natural next chapter for Williams, whose previous works, Hisako’s House and Echo Mine—rooted in themes of lineage, legacy, and love—each experienced the loss of their respective muses during their creation. With To Leave You, Williams deepens this thematic trajectory, exploring how live performance can contribute to a living archive of personal memory..."
