STRUCK

In 2011, performer Tannis Kowalchuk suffered a stroke. As she struggled with recovery and the profound shock to her sense of self, Tannis decided to do what she does best—collaborate with other artists to make a play. struck is an exploration of neuroscience and brain trauma. It is a poetic dance on the razor-edge of mortality, as the brain and body look for meaning and struggle to communicate, recover and re-discover the sense of "self” after a crisis.
