Current and Upcoming Company Work
MONARCH
MONARCH uses the life cycle of a monarch butterfly to explore themes of immigration, loss, transformation, longing, the beauty of life, separation, and ultimately hope. MONARCH asks us to reflect on the balance of the natural world and the anxiety and fear in today’s political climate. Where is the hope? Who do we turn to? How do we protect the most vulnerable in our community?
MONARCH is a full-length dance production featuring a cast of Keshet community members: Keshet Dance Company professional dancers, KP3 (Keshet Pre-Professional Students), adult dancers, young dancers ages 10+, and all levels and abilities who want to dance with us.
Premieres November 20-22, 2026 at Keshet Center for the Arts
