About the event
America's Got Talent finalist Zoë Klein presents "Born, Never Asked." an acrobatic and aerial dance theater piece that sheds light on the complexity of international adoption and family separation. Extraordinary and captivating acrobatic and visual imagery with evoking soundscapes, dance and spoken word serves as a vessel to invite conversation around loss, race, immigration, citizenship and the importance of origin. Born in Colombia, raised in NYC, Zoë Klein embarks on this personal journey in order to question: How can one achieve wholeness in the face of conflicting loyalities between languages, lands, families, and cultures?
“Born, Never Asked.” was nominated for the 2019 Isadora Duncan “Izzie” Dance Award for best ensemble in San Francisco.
