For the next few weeks at Elision Playhouse, Theatre Elision will be presenting Terce: a practical breviary by Heather Christian. Terce: A Practical Breviary is a radical rethinking of a monastic 9:00 AM mass and an adaptation that reimagines the face of the “Holy Spirit” through the lens of the Divine Feminine. Sung by a choir of caregivers and makers, it is a wild meditation/celebration of the sacred mothers alive in all of us.

This week at the Playhouse, re:Vision presented by Branches Contemporary Dance! This show is a collection of dance works that asks us to look again. Choreography, music, concept, and narrative are imagined and re-imagined through different lenses—a reminder that there are always other perspectives and we get truer, more beautiful stories when we invite them in.
