About the Artist

Choreographer Susan Marshall has collaborated with visual artists, scientists and composers on theater productions and gallery installations. Employing modest means to resonant effect, her movement vocabularies often include everyday gestures distilled to near abstraction. Interdependency, freedom within constraints and humor are constants in her work. The parent of an autistic son and member of a community of families of neurodiverse individuals, Marshall is pleased to be part of the movement to increase access for neurodiverse individuals in the arts. She has received MacArthur and Guggenheim Fellowships and three “Bessie” Awards. Her company has performed worldwide and at BAM, The Kitchen, NY Live Arts, Baryshnikov Arts Ctr., Andrea Rosen Gallery, Kennedy Ctr., UCLA, Krannert Ctr., Walker Art Ctr. and Montclair State Univ. Her work is in the repertories of Nederlands Dans Theatre, Hubbard Street Dance Chicago, Pacific NW Ballet and others. Marshall is a professor and the Director of Dance at Princeton Univ. 
Mimi Lien designs sets/environments for theater, dance and opera. With a background in architecture, her work often focuses on the interaction between audience/environment and object/performer. Lien was the first stage designer to be named a MacArthur Fellow. She also creates large public artworks and sculptural/performance installations. Selected work: Sweeney Todd (Broadway); Natasha, Pierre & The Great Comet of 1812 (Broadway, Tony Award); Fairview, An Octoroon (Soho Rep.); Taylor Mac’s A 24 Decade History of Popular Music (St. Ann’s Warehouse; int’l. tour). Lien is a co-founder of JACK (Brooklyn) and artist-in-residence at the Park Ave Armory and Lincoln Ctr. She’s received a Tony Award, Drama Desk, Lucille Lortel, Outer Critics Circle, Am. Theatre Wing Hewes Design Award, LA Drama Critics Circle Award, Bessie Award and an OBIE for sustained excellence.
