837 Venice Boulevard director and choreographer Faye Driscoll revisits
her childhood while examining the construct of identity and how we
blame the world for our problems.
In her newest memoir piece, My
Journey of Decay, Victore Libertore delves into her extensive dental
work with her trademark humor, aplomb and sensuality.
Abigail Browde’s The Home by Josephine, a virtual house tour, transforms into a
map of the inner workings of Josephine, a person who is terribly afraid
of the unknown.
Shannon Hummel/Cora Dance’s latest work, Prey,
examines what could have been through the lens of what is as it
captures the essence of survival in all of us.
With
uncompromising honesty, Sam Kim’s Self Surgery exposes the horror and
reverence we feel for the magnitude of the body's potential.
