Jasmine Hearn, Memory Fleet: Stay in the Circle

Jasmine returns to KST, a creative home that has supported Jasmine’s performance and choreographic journey since 2007, to share Memory Fleet: Stay in the Circle – an interdisciplinary dance theater performance that names the work/rest and past/future of Black people who mother and mentor. Sourcing a spectrum of dance and listening practices, Jasmine traces a network of teachers that shaped their life and devotion to dance and memory keeping by mapping shared movements and memories with an incredible constellation of mentors, teachers, and collaborators including Melike Konur, Bekezela Mguni, Ursula Payne, Staycee Pearl, and Alisha B. Wormsley. Together, they remember and imagine everyday dances, gestures, and recipes of nourishment, care, and resilience that have built and sustained worlds throughout time.
