Choreographer Jo Kreiter has launched the creation of The Wait Room, a project that builds on her 21-year career as a site artist making dance at the intersection of social justice and acrobatic spectacle. The Wait Room is a performance installation that exposes the physical, psychic, and emotional burden of prison for women with incarcerated loved ones. Contrasting waiting and “weighting,” the project incorporates dance, installation, music, and oral history interviews with women whose families are fractured by incarceration. Estimated artist fee: Single performances are not available; $48,000/week.
