From the compassion of a 15-year old girl came the Urge Project, an improvisational-based dance production that focuses on the double-edged sword of adolescence. The production strives to reach the maturing youth of our community by helping them to understand that the choices they make are ultimately their own. They must understand that these choices and consequences solely affect themselves. The struggle that our young adults endure involves the choice to resist the Urge of evil, or to fall victim to the wrath of life's heavy battles. By achieving this understanding of the goodness and evil that affect the thoughts and decisions of our youth, we can prepare them to make their own, individualized decisions based on their interpretation of right and wrong.
Will you bite from the forbidden fruit? Or will you resist the Urge of temptation? With the choice of good or evil brought to life on stage by the artists of Nao Dance Collective, our audience must brace themselves for a whirlwind journey of understanding, decision-making, and revelation. From the seducing tug of Lust to the lackadaisical fall of Sloth, the Urge Production represents its many obstacles through the use of 6 to 10 foot props including the table of Wrath and the swing of Envy. As the child of our story learns of the goodness and evil of life, she finds that only she can decide what's right and wrong. This production will push its way into your innermost thoughts and desires; by taking this journey with us, you will leave the theatre with no less than the Urge for more. As goes the legacy of Nao, our mission is to explore honest perspectives in the human condition through movement that inspires enlightens, and entertains. Join us for the Urge Production and discover what your choice may be. Will YOU resist the Urge?
Our mission: To explore honest perspectives in the human condition through structured improvisational movement that inspires, enlightens and entertains.
