Black Lakes
About the Show
Stripping down her own pre-existing perceptions of theatricality, Katie Workum’s Black Lakes asserts a joyous and spontaneous celebration of the mundane, creating an environment of inclusion and mindful presence. Bessie-nominated Eleanor Smith, Weena Pauly, and Workum improvise with and without one another, moving in unison and in solos, duets, and trios. Asserting that humans are deeply attuned to each other, Black Lakes allows for great physical risks as well as intense focus and intuition, inviting viewers to consider what it is to witness something new unfold. Sound by the Bessie award-winning James Lo and lighting by Carrie Wood.
