Description

Dance and performance artist Rosemary Hannon presents, Gallus Gallus Domesticus, an entertaining and thought provoking dance about fear and about knowing how human it is to be chicken.
Gallus Gallus Domesticus is a dance about being chicken; always afraid the sky is falling; about being a post-modern domesticated free-range female searching the environment for threats. It is about the conceptual object of the body, a breast, a thigh, a wing and where the ability for flight was lost. It is about the memory of wildness and the language in the prayers of a prey animal. The intersection of cultural conditioning and biological imperative in this banal, brutal human form is vain, afraid of aging, illness, loss and death.
Featuring performances by: Phoenicia Pettyjohn, Diana Lara, Cathie Caraker and Rosemary Hannon
