Echoes of Renewal

Echoes of Renewal

“I was so immersed in the world you created, I was not ready for the show to be over.” – Audience member at the Philadelphia Fringe Festival 2026

Echoes of Renewal is a multidisciplinary experiential performance by Continuum Dance Project, that examines humanity’s connection with the natural world. Featuring projection by Ernesto Galan, this new work uses Robin Wall Kimmerer’s book Braiding Sweetgrass as inspiration to explore ideas of attention, care and reciprocity.

Designed for both indoor and outdoor spaces, Echoes aims to bring the feeling of the changing seasons to audiences through movement and video. This work has been set in the MIT Open Space Programming park, Boston University Dance Theater, and toured to the Philadelphia Fringe Festival.

The creation of this work is the result of a year-long residency at BU Wheelock’s Earl Center for Learning & Innovation.

Choreography: Adriane Brayton & Fernadina Chan, in collaboration with the dancers
