"Bodies of Work" is a theatrical series conceived by Jennifer Jancuska and developed by BringAbout Development, 501(c)(3) nonprofit, that employs BringAbout's signature method of development by intertwining music, text, movement, and sound design. "Bodies" refers both to the songwriter's body of work and to the physical bodies bringing the story to life.

At the heart of "Bodies of Work Zoe Sarnak" is a deeply personal exploration. Zoe Sarnak, known for her emotionally resonant compositions, will step onto the stage to share her own story. The piece delves into her personal history, touching on themes of immigration, queerness, family dynamics, and the ever-evolving journey of artistic creation.  The audience will be drawn into Sarnak's current life challenges and triumphs, experiencing her story through songs, dance, and dialogue.  This mid-career examination not only highlights Sarnak's extensive body of work but also invites audiences to join her in contemplating the future.
