Tenth Intervention to Present WE ARE LEGION, 12/8
By: Tyler Peterson Nov. 19, 2015
Tenth Intervention presents "We Are Legion," a new immersive chamber work with dance based on the hacktivist collective Anonymous.
The new piece by Dorian Wallace, titled "We Are Legion" blends extreme metal, free improvisation, and contemporary classical musical idioms, addressing Anonymous' mission to uphold freedom of speech and expression, as well as actively fighting against civic, corporate, and religious extremism and oppression. All audience and performers will be intermingled, and all wearing Guy Fawkes masks. Our guest artists are LottDance and New Vintage Baroque.
"We Are Legion" will have it's premiere during a time in the United States when weekly news reports are plagued by police brutality, gun violence, and government surveillance.
