Ink in the Marrow is a transfixing dance production that explores the space between the written word and the moving body. Conceived by Meredith Barnes and Fairfax Academy dancers, this show follows the journey of "The Writer"—representing the human impulse to create—as they struggle to transform a blank page into a lived truth.
Through 15 thematic dances inspired by the works of legendary poets like Rumi, Maya Angelou, and Robert Frost, the dancers become the "Ink" that brings poetry to life.
See the ink move, and hear the body speak.
