Smoldering shadows suffused with drums and chants open onto a trance-like experience of individual expression and collective experience in “Burn From the Inside.” Dancers transport themselves to an otherworldly plane as they commune together and break away, returning again and again to their breath, their heartbeats, and the ground beneath their feet. As they journey through a boundless expanse, their energy crackles, flares, and simmers through swirling movement urged on by driving percussion and plaintive cello, evoking something deeply personal yet universally shared.
