Spiritus/Virgil’s Dance

Written and performed by Dael Orlandersmith
Directed by Neel Keller
In this exploration of the realities of death through the eyes of a watchful and troubled individual, we meet Virgil — a kid who used to hang out in cemeteries with friends. As an adult, Virgil wonders: what does it mean to live a fulfilled life? Spiritus/Virgil’s Dance is an extraordinary meditation on finding purpose in the midst of the ordinariness of daily life.
