A performance of Ueinzz’s new play. Each Ueinzz performance is a process of reinvention, between exhaustion and a fleeting vision: singular, collective, anonymous, plural, suspensive, intensive, unworking life.

One of the most influential groups in improvised music, with the collective understanding that comes from listening keenly to each other for decades
