Christalyn Wright

Christalyn Wright premieres her new work, Struggles with Words, Attitudes and Great Expectation, inspired by The Secret Life of Bees by Sue Monk Kidd, with video by artist Liza Johnson. Wright uses a multi-disciplinary approach to the creative process by incorporating found text, live interviews, dance techniques, and vocalizations into her work. Wright will be performing in the Fall of 2006 in Carl Hancock Rux’s Mycenaean.
