Live in person at Performance Space New York and live-streamed everywhere! Watching Storyboard P dance feels like glimpsing into another world.
Cardboard boxes, metal guitar, critical homage, attempts to describe things you can’t describe. A one-man Grand Guignol school play.
A conversation about the movement for prison abolition and refusing the logic of race and sex that underpins the criminalisation and mass incarceration of communities.

African American history, avant-garde jazz riffs and activism intertwine in experimental verse of extraordinary and affecting beauty that has to be heard.
Investigate film as language, via the language of film reduced to the basic units of film and language. A film as text in which each frame is a single word.
Dub is strange. A conversation with Edward George and Dhanveer Brar.
Work that focuses in on the static hiss and background noise of recording and pushes it to the fore.
