“Moth” is a full-length, multi-media production by Dev Dance Theater in collaboration with Andrea Brook as The Sonic Butterfly.
"Moth" takes us through an ancestral drama as a young woman returns to her family home in search of answers about her grandmother’s past. As she unearths more and more artifacts from the home, the veil between space and time grows thinner and thinner, represented by movement, poetry, and live music from The Sonic Butterfly.

Show Content
Adult language is used. Children who are comfortable sitting quietly through a full length show are welcome with a parent or guardian.
“Moth” was born out of the desire to bring Dev Dance Theater and The Sonic Butterfly together in collaboration. Once the story was decided upon, the collaborative team quickly started growing with some of Ojai’s finest theatrical designers: Clair Cleary on lighting, and Natasha Heaszl, on set design, and graphic media.Christopher Justiz Roush is designing specialty projections for our show, all generated on his home-built computer (some of which will be coded live during the performance). Christina Justiz Roush and Natasha Heaszl have created custom sculptures of our principal dancers specially for this performance. The story was created to honor the artistic pursuits of our own great-grandmothers, and the sacrifices they made so that we could one day carry on their legacy.
