Tabula Rasa Dance Theater presents the world premiere of BORDER OF LIGHTS, a dance program about the US-México border wall and the scourge of xenophobia. Our company believes that xenophobia is an integral part of racism. We propose that xenophobia is a rejection of civilization.
BORDER OF LIGHTS invites audiences to help dismantle the obsolete walls that divide us.
Ticket prices: 63 cents* — $35 — $65
*Ticket price for formerly incarcerated individuals and their families, and for anyone with either a legal or illegal immigration status.
63 cents is the average minimum wage paid to incarcerated individuals in the State of New York. (By charging 63 cents per ticket, Tabula Rasa Dance Theater brings awareness to this human rights issue and makes dance affordable to people who might otherwise be unable to experience live performances. )
