Experience the power of repetition—reimagined.
Cohesion Dance Project presents Recollections, an original evening-length performance by 2026 Spring Artist-in-Residence Nina Murphy.

Inspired by nature, daily rhythms, and the philosophy of Søren Kierkegaard, Recollections explores repetition and recollection as movements through time—what we relive and what we remember. What emerges is anything but ordinary: repetition becomes transformation, renewal, and possibility.

Featuring over 40 dancers from Cohesion and the Helena community, this dynamic performance is not to be missed.

🗓 May 15–17
