This spoken word/theater piece is inspired by the 2009-2011 collection titled Geometry of Stardust by Black Mountain College alumna Dorothea Rockburne. Dorothea is an abstract painter whose work explores mathematics and astronomy, but is also evocative (through titles, shapes, materials, textures, etc.) of narrative. Spoken word artist Alli Marshall and playwright / musician Ryan Glass will team up to present a series of vignettes — presented mostly as monologues but sometimes in tandem or in dialogue — influenced by Dorothea’s paintings.

Performed at The {RE}HAPPENING, Saturday, April 2. Info and tickets at rehappening.com.
