Lizz Roman & Dancers
@ Project Artaud Theater
Known for grounded physicality and fluid expressiveness,
Roman's latest multi-dimensional, site-specific dance piece,
"Blue Floor Reflections,"

Set to the lights, video, and sound designs of acclaimed lighting designer and DJ Clyde Sheets and cellist & composer Alex Kelly, Roman and her dancers utilize
the risers, I-beams, banisters, stairs, roofs, walls, doorways, windows, balconies, and stage
as they consume the space's raw elements with a movement vocabulary
which remains true and honest to the building's architecture.
Audience members can examine movement from different angles and levels,
to experience a different point of view and to appreciate dance happening on several levels simultaneously.
$20.

" OUR BODIES SPEAK FOR US: Beyond mere words, our nakist bodies signify our ideals of human liberation. They represent the genome of the human species, surprisingly similar on every continent.
Our semantic nakity conveys messages of hope, and of danger. Our bodies speak for our souls.
Our anti-costume calls for freedom now. Our public nakity, open to sun and fog and wind, calls for understanding that our Mother Earth is mortal, and that we must come swiftly to her rescue.... "
