Heartbeat – A Dance Collaboration
Heartbeat is an exciting and innovative dance production, with collaborating visual and musical artists.
This show was inspired by a twelve-part visual art series titled “Healing of the Heart”, by artist Meagan Tarka. Each piece was created in a different medium and portrays an emotional state through the healing process from past trauma.
We drew inspiration from those twelve pieces to create an immersive artistic journey of the heart as it moves through trauma into healing. Lighthouse Dance collaborated with music artists who composed and recorded original music for each of the twelve “chapters” of this story. Each musical piece was then partnered with talented choreographers, and dancers who will portray this transformational journey on stage.
The event will also include access to a showing of Meagan’s artwork, with a meet-and-greet where you can meet Meagan, music composers, and choreographers.
We believe the audience will receive hope, healing, and inspiration as they partake in this journey. Parts of this show may evoke strong emotions or memories. If we had to give it a movie rating, it might be PG (parental guidance advised) due to the intense nature of some of the music and choreography.
Everyone has a heart and everyone has a story, so you will see your own story within the journey of this show. You won’t want to miss this groundbreaking collaboration of artists and art forms featuring ballet, modern dance, and more.
