Contributing music composition and live Korean percussion. From YBCA: "Yerba Buena Center for the Arts is pleased to announce MU–Connector/When the land stands alone, a multi-part theater performance created by Korean shamanistic performance artist and choreographer Dohee Lee. MU–Connector/When the land stands alone is a serialized ritual and theater experience, which will be hosted at YBCA on Friday, June 23 and Saturday, June 24 from 7:00-9:30 pm.

The performance explores ancestral traditions transmuted through dance, singing, drumming, and storytelling, weaving together electronic soundscapes, an altar installation, and community participation to create a communal creative ritual experience. Built from collective community healing rituals, MU–Connector delves into our myths, ancestral land, history, and stories, while also reflecting on wounds suffered and inflicted through systemic oppression in the U.S. and our homelands.

This theater experience will include performances from Asian Refugees United’s The Storytellers’ Group with Manose Singh (Mero Geet Mero Yatra: My Song My Journey), CoRazOn/CRE Cohorts, Mu Ritual Drummers, and Puri Arts Collectives."
