Rinse: The Afterglow of Beginnings

Wednesday, January 28 • 7:30 PM
Market Hall

What is it about the beginning that lingers, intoxicating long after the rush has passed? Rinse, created by extraordinary dance artist Amrita Hepi (Bundjulung/Ngāpuhi Territories, Australia) alongside acclaimed theatremaker Mish Grigor, dives headfirst into that charged moment—and then stays for what comes next. This is a work about the romance of first sparks and the quieter, more complicated terrain that follows when the shine starts to dull.

Through a fiercely physical, visually arresting dance language paired with an intimate, evocative monologue, Hepi reframes beginnings not as isolated events, but as part of a vast, ongoing continuum. Relationships, histories, bodies, environments—they all overlap, echo, and inform one another. Nothing exists alone. Everything leaves a residue.

Rinse is both philosophical and visceral, a reminder that every action contributes to a shared body of knowledge and care. It’s a work that doesn’t just ask what happens after the thrill—it insists that what comes after matters just as much.

Tickets are available on a sliding scale from $14 – $54 including HST and fees.
Recommended price is $34.
