Sat Aug 21st from 7pm – 12pm
7 East 27th Street, NYC
Staged and Performed In front of the Metal doors in the main lobby, on the stairs, and inside the 2nd theater of the Gershwin.
Gathered bodies will fill the space for a 5 hour Performance, The Ritual. A ritual is a set of actions, performed mainly for their symbolic value. The term excludes actions which are arbitrarily chosen by the performers.
Everything happens for a reason we live by accepting our darkest hour. The Ritual will ask you to Focus on a time and place that can’t be explained only witnessed, 7 performers will create jittery movement, posed dishevelment, and body brutality. Repetative action, Sacred dance and attempts to raise the dead. What will be built? What will be left? What will be found?
Join us for our version of Horror, no noise, no screams, fear through illusions of body gesture.
