New York Live Arts presents the world premiere of DANCENOISE; Lock ‘em Up!, a new full evening length work marking the 35th year of creative collaboration between the legendary NYC performance staples and Bessie Award winners Anne Iobst and Lucy Sexton.
Since 1983 the team has created across genre and performed across venues, including nightclubs, experimental black boxes, theaters and museums. In response to the current political climate, the enthralling duo takes the audience captive, delving into their experience of living, resisting, and trying to hang on to a shared humanity in their signature no-holds-barred feminist stage show escapade.
Built on manic choreography, indiscriminate violence, biting up-to-the-minute social commentary, and precise comedic timing, DanceNoise weaves movement vignettes with outspoken musings that at one moment incite motivation and rage and the next laughter and hope. Original videos filmed and designed by Charles Atlas embrace the stage and mirror DanceNoise’s duality of a fresh, sharp breath intertwined with a thoughtful and heartfelt point of view.
