Follow a lesbian princess and a tranimal (part boy, part bird) on a journey through a magically perverse landscape to liberation. The Firebird challenges the roles that ballet has classically prescribed, and seeks new embodied expression through the queering of this old form.

Followed by
if I tell myself I have enough time, then I can be with you: Choreographed and directed by Diana Crum, performed by Erin Cairns Cella, Kathy Wasik, sound and video by Peter Kerlin. The choreography incorporates movement discovered in dancer-driven improvisations with patterns imagined from the audience's viewpoint. The work frames individual experiences of time and places them in relationship to one another. The layering of experiences presents viewers with opportunities to both witness and exist inside of different time scales, perhaps even simultaneously.
