BOOM Performance: The Dinner Table
The Dinner Table is a love story uniquely narrated through dance and film in a way never seen before. It is an intimate look at a relationship destroyed by social and political differences. With a divide in America that is stronger than ever, The Dinner Table is a haunting and captivating depiction of the cause and effect of how our lack of compassion can destroy.
