LILA is a performance that reclaims the act of crying as a source of collective strength. By evoking ancestral mourning rituals and the primordial connection to water, the desire is to braid a space where vulnerability and communal grief are embraced. The audience is invited into a ritual that the artist can or cannot recall. What can be offered against the weight of anger, trauma, sadness, and despair? Together we will prepare the space where one can honor and celebrate those who few can still see; the dead.
