Yuko Kaseki presents “Shoot Geez My Gosh,” a work inspired by Henry Darger’s fantasy world that juxtaposes innocence with violence. Sounds from real battles are contrasted with iconic corporeal movements that represent innocence. Zack Fuller and Emily Smith’s “Twisted from Constantly Watching Doves,” is a new dance/butoh work with two amorphous and shape shifting entities on a cryptic journey through glimpses of fractured fairy tales and twisted memories.
