Upintheair Theatre Presents Sarah Hin Ching U's

Silent Howl

A celebration of beauty in neurodiversity - from Sarah's living experience with a seizure disorder

Dates: May 29 @ 6:30 pm May 30 @ 6:10 pm

Silent Howl is a performance that features visual representation of imagined brain activities through Sarah’s practice of refocus therapy, a tool she uses to conquer overstimulation. While I am exhausted of having to advocate for myself constantly in the extremely physically demanding dance world, I find my condition a “gift” at certain times. As I can notice nuances in the blend everyday life, and to feel every experience deeply, fully, and passionately. This work serves as a testament to the profound strength found in embracing one’s differences.

“The dancer’s body was beautifully integrated with the animation by Alexandra, and both were in tune with Jack Adrian’s spare jazzy soundscape.” – Kaija Pepper, Dance International 2023
