Common Ground brings together a group of friends and artists from diverse backgrounds to discover a cohesive and universal language through movement. Rooted in trust, collaboration, and a deep sense of listening, this contemporary dance work emerges from genuine connection and collective creation, telling the story of "where we came from, where we are, and where we want to go."
