Performing ‘ Then There Are None’
The Constitution of The United States is the basis of this work as we translate its meaning to a larger abstract platform for physical initiation and creation. “Then There are None” combines text, movement and a stylized portion, which incorporates the use of masks. In our current environment, it is difficult to ignore the colliding beliefs that are shaping and separating the people of this country. This work analyzes this phenomenon via five performers embedded in individual convictions. We explore elements from The Constitution and such themes as “E Pluribus Unum”, the unifying motto of the original colonies.

Performing “ROB DAY“
“I move and I move and I move,” ROB DAY takes us on a journey that explores our many connections to firearms. The infatuation and need to be immersed within some form of gun culture, allows Rob (a 9mm pistol) to understand his purpose. The relationships formed on Rob’s travels begin to reveal his undeniable charisma and influence. His reach finds no bounds.
