"Where artistic expression and a message for peace become one."

Not-Two Is Peace is a multimedia explosion of dance, music, video, art, and Peace. Inspired by the literary work of the artist and philosopher Adi Da Samraj, the work is a co-production of the Florence Dance Company and the Ensemble Nuovo Contrappunto for 20 dancers and 15 musicians all performing live on stage.

The production is inspired by Adi Da's book, Not-Two Is Peace. In this book, Adi Da Samraj presents an approach to world peace that is based on the presumption of prior unity, and that advocates a disposition of non-separation, enabling the collective transcendence of global conflicts.

Making its debut in 2011 to critical acclaim, the Not-Two Is Peace Ballet Theatre Event expands to a new level in 2012 with more dance, music, and art.
