A Body (Un)Becoming

SATURDAY OCTOBER 18TH 7PM PERFORMANCE

SUNDAY OCTOBER 19TH 10AM WORKSHOP, 4PM MATINEE PERFORMANCE

Directed by Beth Graczyk

Performed by Leah Wilks & Beth Graczyk

A Body (Un)Becoming is a dance duet that explores the tension between decay and transformation—where the body meets disintegrating materials through acts of touch, labor, and experimentation. Working with discarded substances such as eggshells, the piece investigates what new forms can emerge through pressure, heat, and attention. By animating overlooked materials including an aging female-identified human body, the work challenges fixed ideas of being and utility, proposing humanness as a permeable state—fragile, reforming, and ongoing.
