Graham Studio Theater Presents HOUSEGUEST, 6/7

HOUSEGUEST is de novo's inaugural production: a mixed dance performance incorporating butoh and belly dance with live music and original composed music. It explores the tension between quotidian existence and other realities seen and unseen, invited and uninvited, real and imagined and explores themes of hibernation, transformation and awakening. It is about deep longing from below and the struggle to stay alive in hibernating sleep. We investigate these themes using a multi-layered, mixed-media approach.

RUNNING TIME: 70 minutes

Conceived by Ian Wen and Irina Kom and created by the ensemble.

With: Christian Barthod, Erin Holmes, Aurie Hsu, Lauren Jeanette, Steven Kemper, Irina Kom, Bob Lyness, Hanna Madbak, Hiram Pines, Lauren Marie Robbiani, Estefania Vaz Ferreira, and Ian Wen.
