Description:

In COMMUNITAS, four performers tumble, climb, fly and fall in a physical language that animates the tale of the founding of a civilization. Award winning hip hop artist and composer Jordan McCree (ILL DOOTS) intensifies the relationship between individuals at the edge of their abilities and an audience witnessing genuine risk. By the end, they face their limitations and exhaustion, and together strive to overcome them.
