Schedule of Events:
4pm - The Things Around Us
This solo musical and narrative stage show is a collection of seemingly unrelated stories and anecdotes that swirl and dance with a live musical score created through looped trumpet, clarinet, and drums. From acclaimed Seattle musician and writer Ahamefule J. Oluo (Now I’m Fine; Susan at On the Boards), this dark and humorous, uplifting and bleak, deep and silly work is about trying and failing to find order in chaos.
"As both a speaker and a musician, Ahamefule J. Oluo specializes in mellow anxiety. It’s a smooth but layered style that makes them highly agreeable to listen to and at the same time unexpectedly moving. The concentrated emotional force lurking in their ease of manner sneaks up on you." – The New York Times

7:30pm - The Gig: After Moise and the World of Reason
“A distinguished failed writer at thirty has suspended the climax as if it were a sentence that he had the audacity not to complete.”
This is Tennessee Williams live on an ice rink—a wholly original, site-specific performance about making a plan and leaving the world of reason. Conceived by Director/Choreographer Will Davis (Men on Boats, Colossal) with Ice Choreographer Douglas Webster, and featuring special choreography by U.S. Ice Dancing champions and two-time Olympic medalists, Maia & Alex Shibutani.
