- **Event Name**: "Floe" — Chicago Premiere! dance theater about our changing climate
- **Event Start and End Date**: Thu, 12 Mar, 2026 at 07:30 pm – Thu, 12 Mar, 2026 at 09:00 pm
- **Event Description**: Floe is a dance theater work about climate instability: vanishing polar ice, rising sea levels, extreme weather, forced migration, the tension between denial and evidence, and adaptation and resilience. The work embodies the fragmentation of the global conversation on climate change as it veers from anti-science conspiracy theories to the very real and urgent impacts of global warming. Floe fits into The Seldoms’ interest in the environment, with a body of performance work that conceives a relationship to Earth and to all life on Earth based in stewardship and sustainability, pluralism, and justice—and the fact that the new normal is change.
 
Choreographed and directed by Hanson, Floe features set/visual design by Bob Faust, projections by Liviu Pasare, lighting design and technical direction by Julie Ballard, costumes by Jeff Hancock, sound design and composition by Mikhail Fiksel, and text by Seth Bockley.

Performance by Faith Balderrama, Laren Chang, Damon D. Green, Rachel Newton, Dillon Zamora
