After a sold out show and workshop series last year, Tadashi Endo is looking forward to coming back to Chicago!! He opens this year’s season at the Dance Center of Columbia College Chicago with his critically acclaimed  Fukushima Mon Amour, in honor of the Fukushima disaster in Japan just 5 years ago.  He reflects the changes happening all around us still as we collectively address our feelings of loss, to find some transformation of our grief, to find support in one another.

Do not miss this very special performance Saturday, September 17, 7:30pm [Purchase Tickets Here]

Hiroko Tamano

This 1 minute excerpt gives a taste of Butoh legend Hiroko Tamano’s teaching, philosophies, and movement. In the “Dance of Life: a Prayer in 4 Directions”, Hiroko has built upon this Indigenous practice learned from Txi Wizz (Canadian Buffoon) over 40 years ago.

She has imbued it with her own movements and philosophy as a gift of healing and empowerment to an anxious world. In her words, “this dance form gives ‘presentness’,” and awareness of the directions “gives ‘no confusion’ to the prayer.”
