Two Theatrical Choreopoems: Light Reading and Origami Night

Dance and poetry merge in a night of dual performances at Arrow Street Arts in Cambridge. “Two Theatrical Choreopoems: Light Reading &amp; Origami Night” brings the multi-disciplinary choreopoem Origami Night to Boston audiences before embarking on a U.S. tour. The piece blends spoken word, dance and design to express works by Boston-based poet Pamela Annas, adapted for the stage by her son – multimedia designer Christopher Annas-Lee, and Portland, OR.-based choreographer/producer Graham Cole. Origami Night traces a woman’s life from working class navy brat to radical feminist to mother, and explores issues of aging, love, loneliness, and growing up queer in Boston. Joining the performance is Peter DiMuro and his ensemble Public Displays of Motion, with Light Reading: a contemplation on family, queerness, and the weight of legacy. It’s the project that began his partnership with Annas-Lee,&nbsp; which they collaborated on previously at Gibney Dance in New York. Commissioned by the Cambridge Center for Adult Education 1990, “Light Reading” has been performed throughout the country and internationally by Public Displays of Motion and by Liz Lerman Dance Exchange. Performances are: Mar. 5 @ 7:30 pm, Mar. 6 @ 7:30 pm, Mar. 7 @ 2pm and 7:30pm (with an artist talkback to follow), and Mar. 8 @ 2pm at The Studio @ Arrow Street Arts, 2 Arrow Street in Cambridge. Tickets are $15-$50 and the performance runs approximately 75 minutes with no intermission.
