LEIMAY PRESENTING SERIES 2014: SOAK

In Princess Cabbage, a multitude of fantastical and grotesque images from and inspired by Tatsumi Hijikata’s biographical novel, Sickened Primadonna, are transformed into movements, vocals, facial expressions, crystallizing in a single body like a kaleidoscope. The piece is going to premiere at Mount Tremper Arts in August along with Quiet House, Ash Daughter, a new quartet which also shares the research around Hijikata’s butoh scores.
