4CHAMBERS Set for 8 Week Run at Arts@Renaissance, Beg. Tonight

After an acclaimed run this summer on Governor's Island, Jody Oberfelder Projects once again invites audiences to experience their hearts from the inside out with a new production of 4CHAMBERS. Created, directed and choreographed by Jody Oberfelder, this immersive blend of dance, theater, film and visual installation runs tonight, January 22 - March 22, 2014, at Brooklyn's Arts@Renaissance.

4CHAMBERS is a sensorial journey into the human heart. The performance space is transformed into an intimate environment with corridors that function as arteries and veins leading to four discrete performance chambers.
