Superblooms in nature are unpredictable and untamed—a fleeting explosion of color that captivates and inspires.
Bringing this phenomenon to life through movement, Chicago dance company The Seldoms present Superbloom—a performance that mirrors the wild vibrancy of these rare floral displays. See striking costumes, animation, and choreography, with live music by Finom, in a colorful reflection on the beauty of wildflowers.
