ABOUT ABOUT

At a WIPS you will get a sneak peek into what the artists have been working on, and also become a part of their creative process by sharing your experience of the work and supportive questionings. 

Artist Description:
Our work is about being in-between. As a collective, we exist and work between dance and theatre, live and digital, female and male, Latinx and white. With the 21st century gathering pace, it feels less and less like we can be just one thing or feel just one way.

Right now, we feel conflicted about what performance should do in the internet age. Should we dig in our heels and hold onto the past? Or should we let ourselves go and be swept away by the shallow, rushing current of digital life? We find ourselves wanting something else, something in between, a critical play between attraction and repulsion, embracing them both. Our work explores our most confused feelings, shameful impulses, deepest anxieties, and conflicted ideas. We want to be in a room, together, with life as it is: by turns cold, lonely, and distant, but also near and warm and tender.
