Throwaway Line Tickets

Odyssey Theatre Ensemble presented with support from the Consulate General of the Federal Republic of Germany. Berlin-based dancer and choreographer Shade Théret will return to the Odyssey Theatre’s Dance at the Odyssey series for a single performance of her newest work, “Throwaway Line.”

"...a tragic, romantic-thrill comedy dance solo composed for a deadbeat actress. The story develops as an open diary. Fragmented narratives from the actress’s past reveal both her lust and her disgust. The dancing female body is a provocation, and escapes categorization. This piece manifests as a stream of consciousness, a play-through of events which take place post-show, post-performance – always in the aftermath of “giving her all” to her beloved audience. "

Music and technical direction for “Throwaway Line” is by Alexander Iezzi, who collects and repurposes materials, sounds and music as a mechanism to poke holes into typical ways that psychology, identity and politics may be perceived.

Run Time: 25 Mins. NO INTERMISSION

There will be a post show discussion immediately following the performance.
