When a father and child go riding on vacation, the boy’s horse begins to gallop, and he falls. The father insists that he get back on, but the child remains on the ground. The Growing Edge blurs the boundaries between choreography and storytelling, exploring the theatrical and staged, the fictional and dreamlike within autobiography. It reflects on the portrayal of lived queer and trans experiences as both personal and political narratives. Set to an eerie soundtrack by music producer rRoxymore, The Growing Edge unfolds as a tender and empathetic dialogue — a dance between past and present memories, timelines, and experiences.

When Ellen and Paul’s son Josh introduces his new girlfriend at their 25th anniversary party, no one suspects that it is the beginning of the end for this happy family. The new girlfriend is Liz, Ellen’s former student, who left the university, some years before, after Ellen called her out in class for her radical ideology.

The story of three women searching for more potent, meaningful lives. Each is alive at a different time and place, all are linked by their yearnings and their fears. Their stories intertwine, and finally come together in a surprising, transcendent moment of shared recognition.
