COST OF LIVING
Martyna Majok’s Cost of Living, 2024 production at the Philadelphia Theater Company. The movement on stage was reframing the issue of mobility. We are interested in her ideas of identity. Care takers articulated class disabilities on stage, similar to how social class effectively labels a persons value by ableism.
Fringe Festival
Rhythm Bath
The set designer, Mimi Lien collaborated with dance artists to bring this sensibility of wellness to the space. The possibilities of wellness, offered an unexpected darkness which bombarded my thoughts, though completely subconscious, this after shock came in waves. Following a sensory time line, Susan Marshall choreographed a delicate movement between the boundaries of dance, the nervous system, and the pedestrian. It could only be described on a scale of intensity from high to low stimuli.

The Wilma Theater, 2024.
My Mamma and the Full-Scale Invasion by Sasha Denisova shows the invention and imagination on stage. In 2024, the subject of War in Ukraine was upending the democratic republic for nations to be outspoken about the Soviet pressure and brutality of the Russian dictatorship over land and resources. The idea of Nationalism is an imaginative space where interests are exploited. Denisova, documentary theater realizes aspects of involuntary players and casualties in the exploitation of political views.
