ME//YOU//SHALL//LOVE Alexa Salamé
About This Show
Alexa Salamé has developed an original piece inspired by translations of the poetry of Sappho and created a work fully integrating the body and the voice to examine these precious classical texts. Created in collaboration with the cast and featuring original video work, ME//YOU//SHALL//LOVE is an examination of love, loss, and desire, an exploration of the facets of womanhood and of love, whether it be romantic, sensual, or platonic.
