Out There 2022: An Alternative Performance Series …
New performance and radical theater return to the Walker with three boundary defying productions for Out There 2022. Featuring works by leading American female visionaries—Kaneza Schaal, Annie Dorsen, and Annie-B Parson—this year’s annual Out There series is spread across five weeks January 12th through February 12th. Opening with a world premiere and featuring two new Walker commissions, the program reflects a heightened commitment to supporting artists at this historically challenging moment. While the works examine complex and urgent issues of our time, they also reimagine new worlds with ingenuity, virtuosity, and distinctive spirit. Link here for schedule.
The featured works include an intensely theatrical solo that addresses the impacts of brutal colonialism in Central Africa (and its residue in our everyday lives); a musical meditation on indeterminacy and living in the moment; and a modern-day Chekhovian rumination on privilege, mass denial, and societal divisions in the United States.
