Where We Meet The Silver Moon
Premiered at the Dresher Ensemble Studio, Musical tradition, Oakland, CA
(July 23-26 2026)
Where We Meet the Silver Moon marks the 25th anniversary of dNaga Dance Co. with an evening of dance, live music, and original compositions that trace the spirals of memory, time, and transformation. Featuring works including Movement Still, Whispers, Timelapse, Bodhichitta Bunny, and Spiral Moon, the program weaves together flowers, moonlight, and unexpected encounters to explore how we grow, return, and find one another across the years. Rooted in Asian American experience and animated by a spirit of curiosity and hope, this performance celebrates a quarter century of artistic collaboration while looking toward the future with imagination and grace.
