Can-I-Trust : A Literary / Dance Collaboration (IWP Fall Residency 2022)

With so much of the world embroiled in conflict, it may be that trust is our only way out. Trusting other people is a necessity for positive social interactions, cultural exchange, and economic development. It also helps us learn to be trustworthy ourselves. What are we willing and able to do in order to build or reestablish bonds of trust? The International Writing Program (IWP) writers have collaborated with the dance makers in the Department of Dance to create the performance that we present to you on this evening.

Please stay with us after the performance for a brief Q/A session with the performers and writers.
