How high is the ceiling in my glass castle? (and other perceived limitations) is a series curated by guest curator Stefanie Nelson. Her selection of works by six international dance artists speaks to the “soft bigotry of low expectations,” exploring various microcosms of individual “glass castles” each of us inhabits. Christine Bonansea, BOB, Michelle DuVall, Jonathan Gonzalez, Cristina Planas Leitão, and Antonello Tudisco will each present an original dance dealing with the subjects of perceived limitations and how they are socially- or self-imposed.

 

Tickets are $16 in advance (available at www.eventbrite.com) or $20 at the door.
