Orcas Center

Following her cancer diagnosis, Annie has a reckoning with her body. How does this new body move in the world? Like the butoh master Ishikawa, with whom she studied, Annie asks, how do I “shake this bag of bones?” The journey of the play is towards her liberation and catharsis, and weaves together dance with theater, exploring how we come to terms with our mortality.

“Still Now” incorporates and is inspired by butoh, a form of Japanese dance that arose in the wake of WWII. Butoh as a theatrical dance form explores the limits and nature of being human. Though the inspiration is often disaster or seemingly insurmountable pain, the dance itself is cathartic, improvisational and filled with humor and beauty.
