What happens when the body stops pretending and starts remembering?
Kiss The Stormy Sky is a cinematic and emotionally potent solo dance-theatre work by Sid Ryan Eilers (they/them), returning to Toronto after acclaimed performances across Canada.
Blurring myth and memory, Kiss The Stormy Sky traces four generations of queer ancestry—great-great grandfather, grandmother, mother, and self—through choreography, spoken text, vivid projection, and a lush original score by composer Shn Shn (she/they).
Spanning stories from the Russian Revolution and World War II to contemporary queer survival, the performance becomes a reckoning with lineage, gender transformation, and the political body. It invites audiences into an intimate act of witnessing—an exploration of remembrance, resilience, and radical becoming.
“Professionally and fearlessly explored… Eilers’ physicality is breathtaking.” — Amanda Cobsy-Nesbitt “Eilers has the audience holding their breath with every movement.” — Veronica Appia “The choreography is sharp… filled with exquisite contradictions.” — Gary Smith
