Emily Stein
Migrate
April 1-3, 2005
Friday and Saturday at 8pm, Sunday at 7pm
Admission $10
Emily Stein, Associate Artistic Director of Chicago’s
Zephyr Dance, presents Migrate, a program of solo work. Stein’s
new solo Migration examines images of the dancing body in an abstract
meditation on identity, journey, vulnerability and change. Also
on the program is Deborah Hay’s solo Beauty, adapted by Stein.
Hay: “Particularly in dance, images of beauty have grown static
and outdated in many ways. So naming my new work Beauty felt unimaginably
liberating, as if I was reviving the presence of Beauty to my life
and my work by raising it out of its colloquial dormancy.”

Theater Oobleck
The Hunchback Variations
April 15-16 & 22-23, 2005
Fridays and Saturdays at 8pm
Suggested donation $10; more if you’ve got it, free if you’re
broke
Playwright Mickle Maher brings together composer Ludwig van Beethoven
and the Hunchback of Notre Dame for a panel discussion on the pitfalls
of artistic collaboration. Their attempts to create an enigmatic
sound called for by a stage direction in Chekhov's The Cherry Orchard
are thwarted by their deafness, unpleasant working conditions, and
the fact that Beethoven has not yet finished reading The Cherry
Orchard. The acclaimed Theater Oobleck originally premiered this
piece at Links Hall in 2001.
“…a moving meditation on collaboration and the artistic
process.” – Chicago Reader
“…leaves the audience shaking with tears of laughter.”
