A Trio Suite: On the Flip Side

Tenri Cultural Institute,
43A W. 13th Street, NYC

A Trio Suite: On the Flip Side explores through movement, text, original music and soundscape, a walk through a gallery where a collage of people are on exhibit rather than the art.  Three different choreographers, Emma Cotter, Caron Eule, and Rebecca Whitehurst, have created the work in collaboration with composers, sOo-jung kae, Teresa Wimmer, and soundscape designer, Paul Geluso. 
The performers create a series of slice-of-life scenes that can be compared to a silent movie or a painting coming to life, parading a wide range of characters from a Victorian woman who loves Chopin to James Bond 007 girls taking on the universe.  The culminating effect is that of a surreal landscape in which beauty, desire, and intense individuality must make way for cohabitating in a common space. A Trio Suite: On the Flip Side includes a photography exhibit by Rafil Kroll-Zaida featuring photos from India, specifically Bollywood rehearsal studios and movie sets.
