In Tomorrow We Were, six dancers explore the concept of nostalgia—the act of holding onto a seemingly better past, while gazing toward yesterday yet desiring to move forward. Nostalgia, both individually and societally, has become a powerful force in our current moment. It serves not only as an escape from an uncertain present but also as a projection for the future.
The performers move through a stretched-out halfpipe, leaping high, falling freely, caught in a dynamic that oscillates between moving forward and looking back. Their bodies echo the paradox of nostalgia itself: a constant tension between past and future. The sounds of Yesterday, a song that serves as a lifeline, ring through the performance, acting as a symbol of a past that seems distant yet ever-present.
But the question arises: can we transform this fantasy of the past into a vision for the future? Can nostalgia, so rooted in what has already been, become a tool for creating something new?

Tomorrow We Were is a musical essay on time, memory, and the tension between holding on and letting go. Through the dancers' movements, the piece probes the possibility of bridging the gap between what was and what is yet to come, seeking to discover how the past can inspire a future we can move toward.
