Wise Fruit 12.0: Ocean Ma

Wise Fruit 12.0: Ocean Ma at DROM, New York on Mon, Aug 24, 7:00 PM. Tickets from $23.49. Lineup, start time and tickets on Ckord.

After a three-year hiatus, Wise Fruit NYC returns for its 12th edition with Ocean Ma, an interdisciplinary evening of dance, live music, collaboration, and community. “Hosted by Courtney J. Cook and curated by Brinda Guha, Ocean Ma explores water as mother: forgiving and unforgiving, cleansing and dangerous, nourishing and accountable." Centered on the feminine divine: not as gender, but as a force, Ocean Ma invites audiences to reflect on memory, stewardship, ancestry, transformation, and our responsibility to one another and to the natural world. Throughout the evening, audiences will experience performances by acclaimed choreographers, live musicians, and interdisciplinary artists, alongside the beloved Wise Fruit Live Collaboration Series, where dancers and musicians create original work together in just one rehearsal before taking the stage. This year’s guiding reflection is: What we take disappears. What we ignore persists. What we love changes us. As in previous editions, Wise Fruit serves as both a performance experience and fundraiser, with net proceeds benefiting a women-led organization advancing water stewardship and environmental justice. Headlining choreographers and performers to be announced soon.
