Kimberlee Gerstheimer presents “The Silence Before the Sound,” which explores the connection between somatic movement and the cultivation of aspects of one’s identity. This collection of solos utilizes the dualities of silence/noise and movement/stillness to highlight individual journey and three dimensional self discovery.
