An all new, evening length, knock-down-drag-out, dance/theater show based in part on Voices of the Loon (an educational record put out by the Audubon Society in 1980); the work of sociologist Erving Goffman; At Home–Bill Bryson’s study of the history of domestic life; party games; and what happens when the party is going VERY late into the night/next morning. A follow up of sorts to WR’s acclaimed 2006 Dancing vs. The Rat Experiment. Choreographed & Directed by Dan Safer, Created by Witness Relocation with Guest Artist Robert M. Johanson
Participating Artists: Dan Safer, Robert M. Johanson, TBD
This event is part of a performance series from 7:30pm- 9:00pm, followed by a short discussion.
Start time is approximate.
