Collaboraction announced that Moonset Sunrise, its 25th-anniversary production, with live performances on June 16 and 18 at 7:30 p.m. at Beat Kitchen's new Bar Sol on Navy Pier, 700 E. Grand Ave.
Through healing ritual, storytelling, song and dance, Moonset Sunrise honors the sacred moment between the setting full moon and the rising sun—reconciling the past and celebrating our new now on the banks of Lake Michigan.
First, the artists and audience will meet outdoors, on the south side of Navy Pier, to join an opening performance by Jose Rico, of Truth, Racial Healing & Transformation-Greater Chicago; and Susana Banuelos and Aztec Dance Chicago.
Next, the artists and audience will come together for an inclusive, immersive experience rooted in healing, self-care and collective transformation. Act I will center a moon ritual in which everybody can release all that does not serve them. Act II will celebrate the sunrise.
Moonset Sunrise is a suggested contribution event: $50 for the general public, or $15 for artists, activists, students, seniors and veterans. Otherwise, people can join Collaboraction's Collaboractivist membership program for $25/month for complimentary admission. Reservations are recommended.
