Presidio Theatre Presents Stacey Printz Dance Project "GLASSlands"

Start: Saturday, September 21, 2024 7:30PM
End: Saturday, September 21, 2024 9:00PM

The Presidio Theatre and Printz Dance Project present a significant re-mounting of choreographer and director Stacey Printz's landmark 2017 work, GLASSlands in two performances, Saturday, September 21, at 7:30 pm and Sunday, September 22, at 4 pm. GLASSlands explores human interactions, intimacy and alienation and the increasing compromise of human connection due to the intervention of communications technology. The evening-length work features striking set design by award-wining artist Sean Riley comprising large, transparent pod-like structures, or "bubble rooms" that fill and animate the performance space, creating a plastic world that dancers inhabit and explore. Additionally, plastic "filters" hang in the space and round out the metaphoric environment that suggests we are all affected by isolation and interference with each other. The work grapples with how recent social-media-driven realities affect partnerships, friendships and love and how people manifest intimacy in a complex, screen-filled world. Completing the creative team are innovative lighting designer Wolfgang Wachalovsky, assistant director Jenni Bregman and costume designer Natalie Barshaw.
