Join VALLETO as they celebrate a decade of provocative and transformative dance with the grand finale of the Eternal Bonds trilogy. This landmark event not only commemorates their 10th year but also confronts the universal experience of grief through the lens of memory and joy, inviting audiences into a sacred space of communal healing and remembrance.

ETERNAL BONDS expands VALLETO’s company to ten dancers, each embodying the threads of collective memory that define who we are. This performance intertwines the abstract theatricality of Eternal Bonds.1 with the intimate revelations of Eternal Bonds.2, delving into the profound depths of memory, the echoes of joy, and the shadows of grief. Through narratives and utopian moments where grief is transformed into hope and mourning into celebration.

Please join VALLETO for a 10th Anniversary pre-show celebration at CPR starting at 6:30 P.M. each night of the performance.
