Wake Up! We Were Here Once Before!“(un) Forgotten” is a bold evening-length dance production choreographed by Artistic Director Alli Jones that confronts war, division, and loss as urgent reflections of our present world. Through powerful imagery rooted in the history of the Holocaust, the performance invites audiences to feel, connect, and recognize how cycles of hatred and silence repeat as memory fades.
With a set crafted for this work by Justin Kalvin and costumes designed by former Naropa Arts Professor Joan Anderson, the work is brought to life with striking visual elements. Invoking memory through movement, dancers Cassy Clark, Nicola Elder, Angela Gumieniak, Mira Kaplan, Jethro Paine, Claire Schlutt, and Eva Wilder move through moments where escape and luck were once the only chances for survival. Drawing from Artistic Director, Alli Jones’ Jewish-European roots, “(un) Forgotten” invites a conversation about the consequences of forgetting, the patterns we repeat, and the histories we carry; it is a recollection of what our world was, is, and may be becoming.
