FEET ON THE GROUND by Laryssa Husiak

isthmus ellipsis by Sam Johnson

One evening / Two Performances

FEET ON THE GROUND
In this new work, playwright and performing artist Laryssa Husiak listens to voices of past pioneers and protesters to help illuminate this current moment. Like much of her work, Feet on the Ground weaves memoir, history and fantasy, to create unabashedly emotional characters living in heightened realities. Husiak’s plays and solo performances focus on the formation of identity, family and intergenerational relationships from a queer point of view. At this moment of political upheaval, Feet on the Ground is a theatrical exploration of resistance, liberation and the tension between them.

isthmus ellipsis 
isthmus ellipsis is a dance. It might be a love letter to dance. Subject and object. Explicating and creating ourselves. isthmus ellipsis is two bodies in space, on stage. Two bodies made up of so many. Note structure. Note bodies. Note dissolution. Dance as movement. Technique as habit. Note. Note. Note. An acknowledgement of history and a question about knowing. A duet. 

Featuring dancers Sarah Baumert and Alanna Morris-Van Tassel
