Rapture of The Heroine (guurrrl) is a five woman dance theater piece and an homage to female camaraderie and the power of an individualʼs resilience and determination; especially when feeling the support of friends. Rapture was originally choreographed on Zoetic Dance Ensemble of Atlanta and is loosely based on ChristinaNoelʼs personal experience with this dance company over the past 10 years. Using comedy and tragedy expressed through the body and the voice, the women reflect their personal relationship with identity and definitions of heroism.
