SWAPNŌ JHNĀP: DREAM JUMPING faces the ongoing chaos and escalating destruction of our Common Life by bringing connectivity and liberation out of the dream world and into reality. As the dancers travel through portals that cross time cycles and spacescapes, they integrate vital medicine and patchwork a methodology of dreaming that literally brings the desired world closer. We discover wisdom and connectivities inside the depths of oceanic grief, in the shared rhythms of a dance club, in the hatching of mythical creatures, in the rubble of war-torn landscapes, and inside quantum entanglements of movement and breath. Dancing together opens portals to the future, drawing on the feminist spiritual practice of quantum jumping. 5 journeys, 5 portals, and 5 medicines birth the miracle of a deeply connected universe. Conceived and choreographed by Ananya Chatterjea, featuring the work of dramaturg/writer Dr. Nia O. Witherspoon (INYOSI Sebenzekhaya), composer Greg Schutte, stage director k.t. shorb, scenic designer Mina Kinukawa, costume designer Annie Cady, and lighting designer Kevin Jones. Ananya Dance Theatre ensemble: Mariadela Belle Alvarez, Noelle Awadallah, Heaven Sha'Rae Calvert, Lizzette Chapa, Ananya Chatterjea, Kealoha Ferreira, Davente Gilreath, Juliet Irving, Zhané Jackson, Vy Nguyen.
