And lose the name of action will be an evening-length performance that uses dance and improvisation to bridge discoveries in neurology, embodied philosophy, somatic/healing practices, and the paranormal. The piece looks at the ways in which the space of performance is real and unreal, and how dance and language exist in a fraught relationship to each other. How can we know what to believe in anymore? How can dance be a conduit of unspoken knowledge? The work is an attempt to be specific within life's confusion.
