feral

Dancers: Margaret Ogas, Rachel Sadie Lieberman, Pramila Vasudevan, Jules Bither

feral is an energetic container for heartbreak and the layers of grief, loss, and rebirth that often fall hand-in-hand with it. This dance consists of two concentric circles: the sulking, the eye of the hurricane, the pit in your stomach; and the ghosts, apparitions, gargoyles, guardians that swirl their way around and past us. We hope to hold you, we hope to reflect past selves back to your eyes, we hope to mourn with you, we hope to see newness unveil itself. Love is endless and unbound.

Charles Campbell

Making Monsters

Collaborators: Akiko, Heidi Eckwall, Mike Hallenbeck, Erika Hansen, Masanari Kawahara, Jess Kiel-Wornson, Megan Mayer

For over 20 years, Charles has been exploring questions of power, coercion, political violence, and the effects they have on our society as reflected in the individual and the personal. This piece is just the beginning explorations of a question that has recently come violently into broader awareness through the grabbing of people off the street without warning by unidentified representatives of the state and sending them to foreign prisons: What constitutes a person's humanity? From that arises other questions, including: How do we see other people and how does that inform what we are authorized to do?

Performances run Thursday-Saturday, 7 pm.

Friday performances each week include a post-performance engagement.
