DESCRIPTION:Nov 18, 19 and 20 at 8pm\n\nGravity and CounterPulse present 
 dark/lessons/rupture, an evening of performance featuring excerpts from 
 three new works by Jess Curtis, and Beyond Gravity artists Silk Worm and 
 RUPTURE.  Into The Dark, is a new ensemble work instigated by Curtis in 
 collaboration with a diverse ensemble of Blind, Low Vision and Sighted 
 performers, addressing the physical, subconscious, and literal effects of 
 western culture's binary mythologizing of darkness and light.  Lessons in 
 Anatomy, a new solo(ish) piece from Silk Worm, aims to create a repository 
 for all the negative thoughts, fears, doubts, and second guesses that come 
 with bodily transformation, namely with changing sex. Navigating a 
 medicalized transition, it turns out, produces a landfill's worth of 
 psychic garbage, and Lessons in Anatomy hopes to take out the trash.  
 &theruptureisnow, an excerpt of a large prismatic performance work by the 
 RUPTURE collective (jose e. abad, Gabriele Christian, Stephanie Hewett, 
 Styles Alexander, and Clarissa Dyas) premiering in late 2023, shares some 
 of the group's research on Afro-Diasporic - primarily African-American - 
 folk games and functions as sites of chance, vernacular, and 
 transformation. Working through Fred Moten's understanding of "study" as 
 all that you "do with other people...talking, walking...under the name of 
 speculative practice," RUPTURE sources recreation, rest, and revelry as the 
 anchors between community care and stage composition.  \n\n"Globalism in 
 economics is the pits. But in the arts it can work fabulously: artists 
 bring their various perspectives to projects, cross-pollinate each others' 
 ideas, and discover commonalities and differences. Jess 
 Curtis/Gravity...offers a glimpse of what's possible."   --San Francisco 
 Bay Guardian\n\n$10-$50.\n
