Thank You for Coming: Attendance

Sunday ,February14,2016-4:00 pm

Event Description

Multi-disciplinary

Performance

Presented as part of IN>TIME Festival

It’s like the craziest game of Twister you’ve ever seen, except taken to much deeper, provocative, metaphysical levels.

—This Week In New York

Experience theater as a shared political act in Thank You for Coming.
As the dance begins, five performers gradually become tangled together
into one ever-morphing body—building new formations and revealing
fleeting feelings and states of being. Staged in the round, the audience
is gradually invited into an expansive song, an urban folk dance, and a
beautiful chaos that crescendos in joyful transformation.

This performance is designed for a small audience: capacity is limited.


About the Artist

Faye Driscoll investigates new
forms of theatrical experience as a choreographer and director,
provoking feelings, stimulating senses, and activating minds. She has
been granted numerous awards from the Guggenheim, Creative Capital,
Foundation for Contemporary Arts, Baryshnikov Arts Center, National
Dance Project, and more. She has collaborated extensively with some of
the most innovative new theater artists in New York, including Young
Jean Lee in Untitled Feminist Show, seen at MCA Stage; as well as Cynthia Hopkins, Taylor Mac, and others. She was one of the only dance artists exhibited in YOUNGER THAN JESUS, the first in a series of triennials at the New Museum. For more information, visit.
