Cycles of creation, preservation, and destruction are upset by dissonant gestural embroideries.
Contorted postures and lashing appendages permeate three bodies as they melt towards collapse.
Against the backdrop of a world turned sideways, how much pressure can our natural flow of life withstand?

Thank you to all who came to the FiTS 25 for Quiet Rituals this past weekend.
It was a tender, joyous, intense and fitting conclusion for this performance.
Situated in a building with a dense artistic lineage, all efforts towards this show are deeply appreciated.
Thank you again @fringestings
We'll see you all again next year!

Following a sold-out premiere in Wellington, Stella Grace Seawright, Jake Starrs, and Grace Ella Lewis bring their triptych of solo performances, Quiet Rituals, to Hastings.
The works explore generational ties and the rituals we inherit, reshape, and carry. Through movement, we navigate self-reckoning, grief, dreaming, and the quiet ways communities remember and heal.
Witness this exquisite offering of contemporary dance as the finale of Fringe in the Stings with two performances on Sunday 23 November and a third on the evening of Monday 24 November at 118 Karamu Road. Tickets on sale now from Eventfinda.
