Nine remarkable writers from nine countries. Eight choreographers. Seven dancers. One musician. Put them all together and you have "Invisible Tears," an evening created by Company | E and the International Writing Program at the University of Iowa, a program sponsored by the Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs at the U.S. Department of State.

On Wednesday, November 13th those artists come together for an informal evening of storytelling, music and movement, and a peak behind the creative curtain.

A free performance. An extraordinary creative journey. A conversation across cultures and art forms. That's "Invisibile Tears."

Wednesday, November 13th at 7pm.
The Fabian Barnes Theater at the Dance Institute of Washington
3400 14th Street NW, Washington DC 20010

FREE OF CHARGE | Audiences of all ages welcome.

Cultural Collaboration

Partnering with international artists is in Company | E's DNA. One of our favorite recent partnerships was at home in DC with the Embassy of Sweden and Swedish/Polish choreographer Lidia Wos.

Her quirky, site-specific creation, "Man in a Suitcase" had its premiere at the House of Sweden in spring 2023. Check out this excerpt.
