SUMMARY:Kinetic Light: Wired
DESCRIPTION:Wired is an immense and intimate experience that traces the fine line between “us” and “them” through aerial and contemporary dance and the metaphoric use of barbed wire. The dancers of Wired spin and soar together in this meditation in sound\, light\, and movement on the gendered\, racial\, and disability stories of barbed wire in the United States\, showing how this material shapes common understandings of who belongs. Barbed wire is designed as a material for containment. It is used\, time and again\, to limit individual and community movements and delineate boundaries as large as a nation state and as small as a personal fence. In Wired\, this fraught material comes to highlight not only danger and contradiction\, but also beauty and interconnection. \nTo create Wired\, the artists of Kinetic Light—Alice Sheppard\, Laurel Lawson\, Jerron Herman\, and Michael Maag—and their collaborators—composers Ailís Ní Ríain and LeahAnn Mitchell and scenic designer Josephine Shokrian—defy both gravity and assumptions about what dance can be. The artists of Kinetic Light see interdependence as a political position as well as an approach to making dance from a disability aesthetic: in which disability is a powerful creative and cultural force\, and the many ways of accessing the performance are the art itself. \nASL interpretation and AD are available for all shows. There is no spoken dialogue in Wired. Audio description is available through Kinetic Light’s app\, Audimance. More information will be provided to ticketholders by email in advance. Orientation to and demonstration of the app will be available in the lobby prior to all shows\, along with a tactile exhibit that serves as an introduction to the Wired set\, props\, costumes\, and theatrical elements. \nWired content and artistry will remain the same for all performances. The show shares many aspects of MCA’s Relaxed Performances. Audience members are welcome to exit and reenter. \nLight haze is present in certain sections. There are no strobe lighting effects. Quiet spaces and stimulation kits are available for all performances. \nThe show will be livestreamed on Saturday\, including ASL\, with one channel being audio described. Friday and Sunday’s performances will offer an alternative lighting design. \nhttps://mcachicago.org/calendar/2022/05/wired#accessibility
