An old house full of secrets. A girl hungry with curiousity. Through the keyhole, we watch as her imagination unleashes a fury of dreams and questions, creating a surreal carnival that entrances and betrays. A visceral new theatre work driven by powerful physicality and vivid imagery.
Developed in collaboration with the ensemble: Victoria Boomsma, Genna Brocone, Dion Doulis, Patrick Lacey, Erika Latta, David Natale, Julia Prud’homme, and Kameron Steele
World premiere: Performance Space 122, New York City. Developed in workshop at the Ohio Theatre, the Clark Studio Theatre at Lincoln Center, the Ko Festival of Performance, and New Georges. (All Gallery images from PS 122 premiere.)
The Secret of Steep Ravines” is a dark, dreamlike return to the spirit of the Great Depression . . . an evocative visit to a place in the past that exists in the imagination.”
