AMOC, New Dialect, and Carolina Performing Arts partner to present the world premiere of Broken Theater, Bobbi Jene Smith’s newest work that melds live dance-theater, music, and cinematic beauty.
Broken Theater explores themes of power, love and trust in a threading together of dance-theater, music, and cinematic beauty. It presents a company caught in the theatrics of rehearsal. Company members, preparing for a show, perform music by Schubert, Bach, Connie Converse, and Pete Seeger, exquisitely curated and choreographed. But signals are crossed; the chain of command breaks down; the artists repeat, rebuild, and take apart the moment of performance.
