Embarking on a captivating exploration of space, MoonRock delves into the profound mysteries of the cosmos, unveiling layers of movement, building relationships, and creating imagery that will leave audiences in awe. This extraordinary performance, in collaboration with Dr. Kenneth Phillips, curator of the aerospace science program at the California Science Center, aims to ignite inspiration and contemplation about our universe's profound questions and the valuable lessons it holds. While not a literal representation of the moon rock's scientific contents, MoonRock draws upon elements from science to forge connections and convey the wondrous essence of the cosmos. Following the enchanting dance, an audience discussion with Dr. Phillips will delve into the moon rock, contemporary theories of the earth, moon, and cosmos' creation, and how this knowledge influenced the creation of the performance.
