Just announced ๐ฃ @panpantheatre return to Project this November with their brand new production Long Day's Journey, in association with @bigdancetheater. Limited โฌ16 early bird tickets available until 5 Oct. Book now via the #LinkInOurBio.
Inspired by Eugene OโNeillโs magnum opus, Long Dayโs Journey is a hallucination of a family prone to bouts of addiction, depression and despair. Building on the original characters of Edmund, James, Jamie and Mary but set 100,000 years later, the emotional terrain remains a dense mosaic of sorrow, culpability, resentment, reproach, devotion, and longing.
Long Dayโs Journey explores the closeness of passion and death, human and divine, the sexual and sacred, culminating in startling original imagery, sounds, colours, text and movement.

BIG DANCE THEATER / ANNIE-B PARSON !
The origin of Short Ride Out involved a perceptual challenge to myself to choreograph all aspects of a Stravinsky nocturne that I could perceive, and then eventually to erase the music and leave the โerasure marksโ of the music for the audience to see rather than hear in the danceโin this case, erasure marks would refer to the rhythms, tone, emotion, kinetics, tempo and phrasing in the original music. I erased the Stravinsky and replaced it with a percussion work by Julia Wolf for four hi-hat drums. This is a new version manifesting this idea into two bodies, in this case those two being Elizabeth DeMent and Aaron Mattocks.

We are delighted to be working with @bigdancetheater on Long Day's Journey, opening this week at @projectartscentre
A new performance inspired by Eugene OโNeillโs magnum opus, Long Dayโs Journey is a hallucination of a family prone to bouts of addiction, depression and despair. Moving chronologically from dawn until dusk, with the impact of dependency deepening as the hours pass. Building on the original characters of Edmund, James, Jamie and Mary but set 100,000 years later, the emotional terrain remains a dense mosaic of sorrow, culpability, resentment, reproach, devotion, and longing.
Previewing from November 13th, tickets are on sale now from the Project box office.

Last year, Annie-B Parson (@anniebparson)(Big Dance Theater) and I created "The Oath" โ a cinema piece and public installation, a color reverie and a timely/timeless ode to sisterhood that embodies b oth the seductive and intimidating power of humans moving together as one.
After premiering at @thomasedisonff @festival_filmsurlart Montreal, @cinedans Amsterdam and other venues, THE OATH will be projected on several buildings in Ausitn - April 16-19 as part of @fuseboxlive and in my favorite acoustic hall in the world at Experimental Media and Performing Arts Center (@empac_rpi) in Troy, New York as part of Corpus Festival - April 23-25, which is especially moving as nora chipaumire (@norachipaumire ) and I together with David Hinton were commissioned to make a film for its inaugural year back in 2008. Annie-B will be in Austin, and we both will be at EMPAC. Come j
