Citadel LIVE presents
Tea with Mara
Co-presented with Suzanne Liska
Choreographed by Suzanne Liska
Tea with Mara, meaning to invite Mara (your ‘demons’) for tea, is set in this ‘spirited’ space, embodying Japanese Canadian and Buddhist mythology, practices and philosophy. This interdisciplinary collaboration between dance/theatre and music, animates themes of suffering, pleasure, transformation, and the interconnection between the past, present, and future. Personal and cultural narratives of diaspora, identity, and intergenerational heritages are shared through choreography.
