Primordial Sadness is a new dance theater work by Madeline Wilcox, developed over a year-long experimental process. The piece meditates on the space between what is felt and what is expected. It is an evocative excavation of grief, femininity, identity, and the unsocialized body. Dreamlike and intuitive, it invites us into a porous space of reflection, where physical expression becomes a portal to what we feel but rarely name.
