(Double Bill with Cie Herve-Gil)

A Simple Fact of Pain

Performance Dates:
Saturday January 27th at 7pm
Sunday January 28th at 3pm

A Simple Fact of Pain scratches at numbness, tears at hypocrisy, vilifies beauty and exalts suicidal ideation in a lyrical treatise on obsession and compulsion. Set in the quasi militarized zone of the mind, this dance driven satire targets human lust, a fallibility heightened under a conservative regime, nourished by the media, and fed by secret agents of commercialism. …A simple fact of pain will be performed by Meghan Durham, Bethany Formica, and Janet Pilla, last seen in Stewart’s shock and awe-inspiring Babel (2004 Philly Live Arts Festival).
