To Being is a choreography of persistence in the heart of jeopardy and precarity: the body continues in ongoing change, relations transform, meanings proliferate and fade.
A companion work to Durning’s acclaimed solo performance practice, inging, To Being is based on the decidedly chosen practice of nonstopping — always moving absent destination — always becoming, never arriving. A psychosocial experiment, To Being opens to a landscape where radically divergent desires converge and empathy unfolds.
inging refers to the suffix “ing” in the English language.
“ing” is used to express actions that are still in progress, that haven’t yet ended.
inging proposes the insistent practice of unscripted nonstop languaging as performance, where speaker (performer) is in direct relation with listener (audience) at the moment of articulation.
