A Night at the Eclipse

WORLD PREMIERE

Four artists create four original dance works inspired by the four seasons. Each original piece was created, performed and recorded on site in the winter of 2022 at Eclipse Walk With Light: an interactive light trail at Muskoka Heritage Place in Huntsville, Ontario. The performances will make their online premiere between April 6-9, 2022 on both the HfA website (this page) and Facebook.
