Tommy! by Clare NobleTheatre Performance

Challenging the traditional slasher, this horror-inspired thriller witnesses two women come back from the dead.

This performance contains fake blood and profane language.

Alienationem by Mekaela ReyesDance Performance

Four women navigate each other’s relationship through bodily conversation. Equipped with free will, these women express their choices by conforming or alienating. Their eyes study to mold into another body. Their bodies charge and buckle into structures of comfort. Their hairs distinguish loneliness and trigger alienation that travels every inch of their entire body. The women are bombarded with personal conflict on top of elements outside of their own control. Individualism and togetherness highlight their bodies in relationship with each other and could lead us to believe that they may simply be aliens.
