Zero Lab #2: Marynia Fekecz-Mangan | Come Hell or High Water
Choreographer | Penelope Morout | Cross Impact Co.
Zero Lab producer/dancer | Marynia Fekecz-Mangan (MfMdanceArtist)

Marynia is commissioning interdisciplinary choreographer Penelope Mourot and six local dancers to focus on the power of verbal and physical communication as a means for solidarity, particularly in today’s society of digital media.

Zero Lab #3: Tia Kushniruk | Feed
May 30+ 31
An ensemble work using a variety of characters to live out various Sisyphian nightmares, “Feed” is a bold rehashing of traditional theatrical staging and dance rhythms, that culminate in joyous reverie for the little things in life.
