Featuring six Maine-based dancers and a live cello score, impossible pain… is an absurdist journey exploring the circuitous path of resilience.

An absurdist journey through the tangled terrain of the inner voice, impossible pain careens between whispers and wild outbursts, awkward gestures and fluid swirls. With looping patterns, sudden detours, and moments of breath work stretched to their limit, this dance explores the circuitous—and often comically relentless—path of resilience, where progress feels like spiraling sideways and the only guide is the unreliable echo of your own mind. Featuring six Maine-based dancers and a live cello score.
