Time: 7:30 am - 9:00 am
Raven Spirit Dance and Native Earth Performing Arts are happy to present the Ontario Premiere of Chapter 21, a full-length dance and theatre piece about moving through grief by Starr Muranko, from March 23-26, 2023 at Aki Studio in Toronto. This Ontario Premiere is programmed in honour of World Down Syndrome Day on March 21.
Chapter 21, choreographed by Starr Muranko and directed by Yvette Nolan, is a nonlinear show named with devastating accuracy. After several pregnancy losses, Starr learned her son would be born with Trisomy 21, also known as Down syndrome. Just a few weeks later, she was diagnosed with breast cancer with a chemo treatment regime every 21 days. Chapter 21 explores what happens when a vibrant, active artist comes face to face with a crippling collision of events.
