person[ing] ~PLUS~ Office of Illegals: Dream On The Organism that Persons ~PLUS~ Ten Directions

person[ing]
Using borrowed text, song, & movement, The Organism that Persons (The OtP) seeks to create new worlds from old ones and offer new perspectives on what it means to be a person. This first installation of person[ing] borrows from the 1971 documentary A Lady Called Camille, the book ‘Architectural Body’ (Gins & Arkawa), and musical samplings from Depression-era tunes to Lana Del Rey. The OtP draws from classical & postmodern dance, Buffon (clown), vocal arts, & drag performance.
Devised & Performed by: The Organism that Persons (the OtP)
Projections: Jake Nathanson, Jordan Ross, Chris Rehmann
Creative Consultant: TBA
