April 27-30 at the Joe Goode Annex
A new dance theater by B.L.A Affiliate Artist Hope Mohr inspired by Alice Notley's feminist epic poem, The Descent of Alette, featuring Tegan Schwab-Alavi, Suzette Sagisi, and Belinda He.
Notley's poem follows the protagonist's journey through a dreamlike underworld to kill "the tyrant."
The dance isn't a verbatim staging, but rather inspired by NOtley's haunting imagery & intentions, specifically the poem's re-imagining of inherited forms.
