Recall / A Carnival of Voices - Jan 31-Feb 7 - RHINOFEST 2011

RECALL: AN AROMATIC INTERACTIVE PERFORMANCE by Jessica Hannah
Recall is an interactive performance with aroma. Take a trip down memory lane as one women dives into the past through scent. What does a woman choose to remember and forget? Audiences will smell along the way in this funny, poignant poke at the nose.

A CARNIVAL OF VOICES by Shalaka Kulkarni
A Carnival of Voices is a performance driven by hybridity that explores identity, culture and displacement. Indian Classical dance forms merge with Modern and vernacular gestures for generating movement. This work examines the challenges that post-colonized descendants living in a non-native and a so-called normative dominant culture face with selective editing processes that generalize and misrepresent an entire community. Through movement, text, and media, this multi-layered work comments on the relationship between the performer and the viewer and emergence of a hybrid identity with no distinct boundaries.
