Mutate | is a selection of multi-medium performances curated by Masha to revisit her cancer diagnosis and how it has changed her relationship with dance. Masha was diagnosed with AML in Russia while pursuing her dream as a professional ballet dancer. From her sudden diagnosis, her sense of self, image, and direction came crumbling down in a matter of seconds. How could a future and identity that she had been building for half of her life dissipate so quickly? Was this life not meant for her?
Since her diagnosis, cancer has mutated Masha’s relationship with dance. Dance no longer grows cancerously inside of Masha as a performer, but rather grows alongside her as a reflection.
The night will include performances from former Principal dancer of Canada National Ballet Skylar Campbell and dancer Jaclyn Oakley, USC BFA student Garris Munez, a world premiere choreographed by Masha Cherezova, comedian and breast cancer survivor Julia Johns + film screenings from various artists.
All profits will be donated to Blood Cancer United and their fight towards saving more lives via Masha’s campaign Raise the Barre.
*Please consider purchasing a higher valued ticket as all the profits raised from this night will be matched by a generous patron. By increasing the value of your ticket, you are also multiplying your impact.
You may also make a tax-deductible donation HERE.
With your ticket purchase you are making a transformative impact TODAY in families and individuals battling blood cancer.
