BROKEN THEATER AT CAROLINA PERFORMING ARTS

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.
