The Iris is a collection of contemporary dance works by Lenorris Arnold that reflects a personal journey of mental health. Each of these works mirror the life stages of an iris flower. From an Iris's birth to flourish, Lenorris Arnold uses movement and projection to depict that even through different life struggles that peace can be found. The Iris also features guest performances by Jade Whitmire, Noble Motion 2, and The PAC Dance Company.

A message from Lenorris Arnold: The iris is a symbol of hope and truth. For me, I am always hoping and trying to find the good in anything; but I do understand the truth of life. I understand that some days will be hard and that sometimes I will struggle, but through it all, the good days will come. Please join me as I share my hope and my truth though The Iris.
