Archives from the Scrapbook features a duo of performance works by Finleigh Zack Dance, and incorporates an audience talkback which will further inform the company's creative process.

The first work, Another Meaningful Moment, explores how the emotional wellbeing of humans reacts to the simplest form of movement as a primal instinct. Dance is not only a form of entertainment but a way for people to discover feelings nonverbally. Watch as reaction, exploration, and healing all exist on the same plane together – our bodies hold emotion, but how do we release them?

The second work, Prologue, explores the concept of transitional moments that shape the trajectory of a story, highlighting individual growth narratives. The work aims to unlock memories, provoke self-reflection, and capture the essence of human experience through authentic expression. Each of our lives carry a unique underlying story that shapes our identity. During the performance, both the artists and the audience will collectively engage in observation, curiosity, and personal growth, culminating in an epilogue that interweaves these narratives together within the talkback.

The performance as a whole aims to evoke memories and provide an opportunity for individuals in the space to explore and deepen their understanding of their personal purpose. The work seeks to tap into the genuine expression of emotions and its capacity to encapsulate the rich tapestry of the human experience.
