Soft Animals

A call they were not ready to hear lingers. She calls them back, and the force of that call begins to shape their return.

Soft Animals is an abstract dance-theatre work tracing a group of women who have lost their connection to the past. Moving through states of fracture, tenderness, and resistance, they search for ways to listen, remember, and speak again. Physicality shifts from raw and instinctual to precise and composed, revealing a shared effort to rebuild identity and connection. Once hidden by necessity, their abilities begin to sharpen and return as they arrive in a shared space of reclamation. The work invites audiences into powerful landscapes shaped by vulnerability, resilience, and collective transformation.
