What is suffering? Is it possible to stop suffering?

These are questions posed by New Orleans newest dance company FLOCK, led by artistic director Meryl Murman in the development of their new work,The Stop Suffering Project. All members of the community are invited to join the performers and choreographer of The Stop Suffering Project as we explore the methods used by healing practitioners to address the problem of suffering. Together, we will begin a communal discourse on healing and play with light physical activity. Your voices and experiences are a vital aspect of The Stop Suffering Project, which will culminate in an unconventional and experiential performance in November. We also hope that each person will emerge from the workshop with new information, questions, and possibilities to renew their personal journeys of healing. Please wear comfortable clothes. All ages, professions and backgrounds welcome.
