ORANGE NOISE
Closing 12/7/24 at THE CAPSULE 7-10pm. This has been such a special show & to wrap there will be some final performances from Anna Johnson (doing Barbara Ess), Lauren Sudbrink (Yoko Ono), Ro Lundberg & Zara Teicher (Jeanne Lee) and a little performance lecture about all of this and that from me. Performances around 8! Hope to see you and yours and then and there ?

This is a show that hums on the q of: what occurs when we sing or sound off with the novel voices of history? 9 historical figures, chosen for the ways in which they retuned what a voice could be, are paired with artists as a speculative attempt at making an ensemble that is temporally unbound. The tuned-out-of-tune of this ensemble shares symmetry with orange noise, defined loosely as the sound of noise making together (think: an orchestra warming up). Archives and material ephemera collide with unique response works, takeaway objects, performances, covers, and all manners of creative research that hinge on the history of โ€œmaking it new.โ€

Featuring the voices, objects, sounds, occasional ghosts, and material residue of:

Andrea True, Barbara Ess, Chandra Oppenheim, Dick Higgins,Florence Foster Jenkins, Jeanne Lee, Julius Eastman, Lypsinka, Yoko Ono in concert with Angela Inez Baldus, Anna Johnson**, Breanne Trammell, Bun Stout, Carissa Pinckney*, Hannah Marcus, Jordan Brown, Kat Bawden, Kristen Bernier*, Lauren Sudbrink**, Lee Rae Walsh, Liz McCarthy, Lula Asplund*, Makayla Lindsay, Maya Nguyen, Nicola Florimbi, Paige Alice Naylor
