cat mahari’s blk ark: the impossible manifestation is an interactive performance and installation, with live, semi-improvisational sound, hip-hop and house dance, and film. By exploring improvisational and Black cultural strategies of play, learned from joanin’ and the soul clap, mahari presents modes of survival and liberation, revealing questions about what it will take to find freedom and map the road ahead for our collective futures.
While the audience is encouraged to interact with the installation before or after attending the performance, the installation and performances may be experienced individually, offering two modes of engaging the ideas central to the project.
Accessibility: English CART captioning is available for the performance on Sunday, September 29, and wheelchair accessible.
