How can we find the time to pause, memorialize, and learn from our collective histories? This dance work attempts to tackle that question.

About this event

“…psychologically driven […] you might want to be in a mindful state.” —The New York Times

How can we find the time to pause, memorialize, and learn from our collective histories?

Underpinned by the writings of Zuboff, Sartre, Piketty, and Virgil, ChrisMastersDance investigates overconsumption and addiction to drama, the inertia that concretizes unsustainable forms of life and work, and the inextricable link between love and loss. Constructed through rigorous generative tasks, collaborators are empowered to embrace their individual and indelible histories to forge a Mausoleum in the fire of their experiences.

About the Author: Michael Strangeways

As the Editorial Director/Co-Owner, Michael Strangeways writes, edits and does about a million other jobs for Seattle Gay Scene, Puget Sound's most visited LGBTQ news, arts and entertainment website now celebrating its 14th year as a media outlet. A semi-proud Midwesterner by birth, he's lived in Seattle since 2000. He's also a film producer who would like you to check out the Jinkx Monsoon documentary, "Drag Becomes Him" now available on Amazon.com. In his spare time, he gets slightly obsessive about his love for old movies, challenging theater, "otters", vodka, chocolate, "I,Claudius", Lizzie Borden, real books made out of paper, disaster films, show tunes, Weimar era Germany, flea markets, pop surrealistic art, the sex lives of Hollywood actors both living and dead, kitties, chicken fried steak, haute couture and David Bowie. But, not necessarily in that order.
