River To River Festival - Open Rehearsal: Optimistic Voices (work-in-progress)

Saturday, Jun 28, 2025 at 4:00pm

The Arts Center at Governors Island

Optimistic Voices (Work-in-progress) | Juliana F. May

Optimistic Voices probes the intractable contradictions of family, eroticism, and motherhood. Influenced by Postmodern dance, musical theater, and Bob Fosse’s sexed-yet-sexless movement idiom, May continues to refine her signature song/text cycles, using repetition and off-kilter rhythms in hot pursuit of a new kind of performative language. The world premiere of Optimistic Voices will be in the fall of 2025.

Location: The Arts Center at Governors Island, Studio A3
