ABOUT THIS YEAR'S THEME, AND IMPORTANT DATES:
Off-Leash Area presents the 3rd Off-Kilter Cabaret, an ongoing community program designed to highlight and support artists with disabilities in the creation of original performance work.
Artists will be asked to create a performance piece that is 5-10 minutes in length that speaks to the theme of this year’s Off-Kilter Cabaret - “Human Alchemy”.
How the Off-Kilter Advisory Team is thinking about this year's theme, "Human Alchemy":
The Human Body is a magical vessel – where has it taken you? Where do you want to go? The Human Body is endlessly diverse – there are no two alike. How do you connect with others? What does it mean to be able to transform, to evolve, to become? Culturally? Biologically? Spiritually? Or at the level of quantum physics?! What happens when you mix disparate objects, sensations, or people together? How do you transmute a disability that others perceive as a flaw or weakness into your strength or power?
These are just some ideas of how you could play with the theme “Human Alchemy”, please feel free to run with your own interpretation and allow it to inspire your proposal!
