Praised as “a fascinating conceptual performance piece” by the Utah Review after its premiere at the Salt Lake Fringe Festival, An Undiscovered Room is coming to the first ever Durham Fringe Festival on November 3-4.
An Undiscovered Room is an immersive journey into lost and hidden spaces. Over the course of the performance, the audience travels through a maze constructed inside the venue with a series of poles and stitched-together curtains of found and recycled materials. The performers – dancers, musicians, poets, and actors – navigate the space alongside the audience. Specific conditions inside the maze, such as an encounter with another person, a shift in sound or lighting, etc., triggers performance scores for the artists. Dance, music, and text emerge from these encounters as each score is performed and the work unfolds in a constantly evolving labyrinth of experience, discovery, and connection.
Performances are on November 3 and 4 at The Fruit, with two showtimes each night at 7:00pm and 8:30pm. More information and tickets at the link below.
