chuthis. is coming together this August to begin work on a brand new creation!  We are currently raising funds to support this project, with an immediate need of $25,000. We know that this is a difficult financial time for many of us; however, without community support, this project will not become a reality. Many of you have consistently supported us throughout the years, and if you are able, we hope that you are willing to do so once more.

Rhythmic Identity (working title) is a double bill that comprises two 30 minute works: Expressions in the root of and, Inform (ed). Rhythmic Identity celebrates the both/ands of one's lineage, instead of exploring the contrasting differences.

Rhythmic Identity grooves through:
BOTH a rise AND fall of a body,
BOTH a straight AND supple spine,
BOTH a relaxed AND rooted posture,
BOTH percussive AND sustained movement, and
BOTH urban AND traditional forms.

The vibrations and sounds generated from music connect humans at a profound level as rhythms can heal and bring communities together during times of sadness, grief, love, and joy. Rhythms connect us deeply and play a vital role in enhancing peaceful connections amongst diverse communities. It helps us co-exist! Rhythmic Identity takes action with a peaceful heart yet firm intention!
