These themes will be explored through live performance, workshops, and multimedia installations. Curated by Jess Jupiter and Aya Lane.
New Voices in Live Performance is a curatorial platform that invites a curator / artist / collective to organize a weekend-long program of public events at CPR – Center for Performance Research. Invited curators will address a particular inquiry within the expanded field of dance and performance, demonstrating a sense of research and serious play around the proposed question, topic, or theme. The resulting schedule of events and performances are open to the public, and the format is left to the curator’s discretion – it may include panels, workshops, performances, exhibitions, publications, installations, or other forms.
