Headlong Dance Theatre in "Shosha" July 26, 2007

"Fiendishly inventive." The New Yorker
“Clever and charming" The Village Voice

Shosha is a literary and theatrical work of dance theatre that examines the author Isaac Bashevis-Singer's eccentric characters in 1930's Warsaw through the lens of 1970's America. Believing that they can finally free themselves and the audience from their existential shackles, the performers dance beautifully and ridiculously, cajole each other and the audience shamelessly, and change their lines recklessly. Ultimately, the troupe, like the characters in Singer's novel, are on a "soul expedition" searching for the divine in the shadow of war.

Tickets $25, $20 & $10 for students
