This dance puppet collaboration for all ages uses sound, objects and movement to narrate one little girl’s journey as she makes sense of the changing world around her. With choreography by Joori Jung and ArtLabJ, puppetry by Carrie Morris and the Detroit Puppet Company and an original score by composer Joo Won Park, audience members will be invited to participate in this story that explores themes of trust and release as we figure out how to exist in this world together. 

Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage American Month programs are developed in partnership with the DIA’s auxiliary group Friends of Asian & Arts Cultures and funded in part by the Freeman Foundation.
