Feral Theater, “Last Dance” (Yale Institute of Sacred Music)

Miller Hall Common Room

406 Prospect St.

Thursday, September 7, 5:00-7:00pm

 

Last Dance is a semi-improvised performance centered around a suspended sculpture. The performers partner the sculpture in a strange dance as they navigate its changing form. Visually inspired by Louise Bourgeois’ suspended works, the piece is a study of loss, cycles, and tipping points. How do we deal with irreversible change and the aftermath of loss? What happens when we face impossible choices? The performance will last approximately one hour and will be followed by a reception and a conversation between the artists and Yale faculty. Please register in advance.
