A dance party love letter to our community, expressing the joy of relation in the abstract and through actual physical proximity.
This mini, late-night ball will include categories inspired by the events earlier in the weekend.
A parody of a (Manhattan) road movie and meditation on bifurcation, in paths traveled between the seen and the heard; a road trip played over and over from different perspectives.
Three intimate 45 minute sessions, reading your political questions – using Tarot, Palmistry, Reiki, Astrology, and Philosophy, and the invented methods of Fake and Political Therapy.
Solo performance by Diamanda Galás one of the great artists of the last forty years. Hers is an emotional expressionism of demonic shrieks, operatic falsettos, glottal clicks and diabolical growls.
Umeda is a Japanese artist who is as fascinated in setting up interesting situations to observe, as he is in creating performances.

Los Glissandinos work with clarinet and sine tones beating and thrumming in your middle ear, all beautifully paced and serene, but with just enough steely menace broiling under the surface to keep you on edge.
Glasgow based contemporary music group Paragon Ensemble performing an improvisation with Pete Dowling, Nick Fells, Robert Irvine and others.
Heat-mapped bodies, found porn films, Korean psyche-folk, creepy police intrusion and self-defence.
A chorister attempting to sing Vivaldi, with live accompaniment, while trampolining for 20 minutes.
