Don’t miss the return of Sean Dorsey Dance’s The Lost Art of Dreaming – in San Francisco for 3 performances only as part of a 10-city international tour. The Lost Art Of Dreaming invites us to reconnect with longing, embrace expansive imagination, connect with joy and pleasure, and propel ourselves toward loving Futures. This powerful new work features full-throttle dance, intimate storytelling, intricate costuming, and exquisite queer partnering… all performed with Sean Dorsey Dance’s signature technical precision, guts and deep humanity. The Lost Art Of Dreaming is performed by a powerhouse ensemble of five trans, queer and gender-non-conforming dancers (Sean Dorsey, Brandon Graham, Héctor Jaime, David Le, Nol Simonse) – with a rich, layered soundscore featuring original and commissioned music. The event features the world premiere of the work, followed by the lobby experience of our Postcards From The Future and The Futurist Pledge! KN95 masks provided and required for this event.
