[CANCELLED: June 3-6, 2020] Tanya Tagaq
I saw Tanya Tagaq back in 2017 and her show was mind blowing. I definitely want to see her again.
This new show is based on her novel Split Tooth. I read an excerpt of it and it was really compelling. The show was described as
an extraordinary union of Tagaq’s improvised musical performances and best-selling debut novel, created in collaboration with director Kaneza Schaal and visual artist Christopher Myers. Featuring the world’s first-ever Inuit throat singing choir featuring all-Inuit performers, this theatrical adaptation comes to life through Tagaq’s incisive voice and words. Art and action unite in a radical vision of Arctic Futurism—a conversation with the myths that have made us and the myths we have yet to write.
That sounds incredible.
I’ve never gone to Brooklyn for a show and it was highly unlikely that I would go to this one, even though i really wanted to. BAM cancelled their entire season though, so maybe when it gets rescheduled she’ll come closer to me.
