The world-renowned Liz Lerman company boasts a 30-year international history of art-making, exploring the role of engaging the everyday individual in art-making processes, and the function of dance as a memory device.

The internationally treasured Armenian music and dance troupe Sayat Nova has since 1986 performed around the world in an effort to express the pride and indomitable spirit of the Armenian people, and foster friendship across communities worldwide. "... frantic and triumphant, with wailing melodies and a frenzied, rolling drum beat." -- Watertown Tab, 2006

In Out of Darkness the two groups perform together for the first time. They will provoke and inspire us, with probing explorations of mass violence in our time and a healing reflection on the scope of human compassion.
