Description
Robin Becker Dance, in association with the CM Performing Arts Center, proudly presents INTO SUNLIGHT – A Three-Day Event Honoring Veterans.
David Maraniss’ They Marched Into Sunlight is a nonfiction account of two days in October 1967 when war was raging in Vietnam and the antiwar movement was raging in America. The book inspired choreographer Robin Becker to re-imagine this story into a dramatic dance performance – a rare marriage.
This unforgettable weekend experience includes the following options:
Into Sunlight: The Film. – A documentary combining the dance performance and historic events around the Vietnam war.
Showtimes: October 24th at 2PM and 7PM
Into Sunlight Dance Performance – a breathtaking live interpretation of They Marched Into Sunlight.
Showtimes: October 25th at 2PM and 7PM
Artist Talkbacks – After each Dance Performance and Film Screening, stay for a deeply moving conversation with John Melillo, our Featured Local Artist of the Month. A disabled Vietnam Veteran, John channels his journey into breathtaking works of art, using painting as both solace and healing.
Wellness Through Movement Workshop – Led by Robin Becker herself. Donation-based and open to all, this unique workshop invites you to reconnect mind, body, and spirit through the healing power of movement.
Sunday, October 26th from 1PM to 3PM
