I'm very very excited to perform with Rachel Beetz as Autoduplicity for the 2017/18 wasteLAnd Concert Season. We've put together a program that explores different kids of musical reflection. Throughout these pieces, the performers's bodies touch, imitate, sense, and are mirrored in physical and virtual spaces. The effect is a kind of dance between sound and gesture, and a chance to build empathy through shared space.

FEATURING:

Pauline OLIVEROS: Bye Bye Butterfly

Mayke NAS: Digit No. 2

Natacha DIELS: 2.5 Nightmares for Jessie

Michiko SAIKI: a…i…u…e…o… 

Annie HUI-HSIN HSIEH: The thin air between skins

Celeste ORAM: Sanz cuer/Amis, dolens/Dame, par vous (World Premiere)

Tickets: $15 / $5 students

The music is silent, but not absent. It is not speechless, and it also does not move with virtuosity bordering on silence. The music gets its vitality and its radiance, not from gesture and figuration, but in quiet presence – everything is there: colours, sensations, shadows, durations. 

- Jürg Frey

Please join us for the first concert of our 2017/18 season, presented in partnership with Automata Arts!

Roald Dahl's James and the Giant Peach is a new musical featuring a wickedly tuneful score by the Tony Award-nominated team of Pasek and Paul (Dear Evan Hansen, Dogfight and A Christmas Story the Musical) and a curiously quirky book by Timothy Allen McDonald is a treat for the whole family.

When James is sent by his conniving aunts to chop down their old fruit tree, he discovers a magic potion that results in a tremendous peach... and launches a journey of enormous proportions. Suddenly, James finds himself in the center of the gigantic peach, among human-sized insects with equally oversized personalities, but after it falls from the tree and rolls into the ocean; the group faces hunger, sharks and plenty of disagreements. Thanks to James' quick wit and creative thinking, the residents learn to live and work together as a family. The dangerous voyage is a success, but the adventure takes a whole new twist once they land on the Empire State Building.
