The heart has its reasons that reason knows not of, which is why most adults only eat breakfast cereal endorsed by cartoon characters. Catch a choreographed tribute to the body’s most mysterious organ with today’s Groupon: for $25, you get one ticket to Bodiography Contemporary Ballet’s Heart (Function vs. Emotion) (a $50 value) presented by Family House and performed at the Byham Theater on Saturday, June 4 at 7:30 p.m. Seating will be the best available at the time of ticket redemption. Children younger than 3 will not be admitted (see the theater’s child policy for more information). The nonprofit Bodiography Contemporary Ballet explores the struggle against heart and lung disease in a performance that layers multiple genres of dance over a classical-ballet foundation to create evocative, modern movements.
