Dear Donald/Dear Hillary (Their Secret Correspondence)
Dear Donald/Dear Hillary (Their Secret Correspondence) by Elaine Liner The play takes liberties, for laughs, with the biographies of the famous political rivals. What if they were assigned to be pen pals as second-graders? In their heretofore undiscovered personal letters spanning half a century, right up to November 2020, we see their awkward friendship wax and wane in letters that borrow liberally (not conservatively) from Trump and Clinton’s actual public…
dwell
Dwell: (v) to inhabit (v) to come back to. The home is a container that shields us from the exterior, the other. Lindsey revisits their memories of losing a family home and investigates the spaces we occupy as children. They wield memory, gestures, and the present pandemic to deconstruct the domestic sphere.

deprogram
deprogram is a dance theater quartet directed by Megan Mazarick that deconstructs gender, science fiction, and elements of video games. Working within a science fiction narrative, the work uses commercials, improvisation, and fantasy embodiment as source material to create a Bro duet, tampon vogue party, and contact-based lift sequences. Both improvised and devised text inform the performance as bodies glitch, freeze, prance, and morph in response. Created in collaboration with…
