Intermedia Arts, the Minneapolis venue known for inclusive and sometimes transgressive performing and visual arts, has announced a fall season.
The line-up kicks with Leilani Chan's "Global Taxi Driver," which is drawn from the lives of the international cast of characters behind the wheel. Chan wrote and directs this show, which runs Sept. 11-21.
Next up is "Girlywood," choreographer April Sellers' new show that includes "Jousting," a duet with dancer Mary Ann Wall about feminism ("the new 'F-word'"). Sellers (right) also perf "Big Baby," which centers on female archetypes (Oct. 9-11).
Actor, playwright and director Shá Cage (left) is now adding curator to her titles. She assembles as cast of women of color for "The Blacker The Berry," a visual exhibit that is accompanied by performances.
The show celebrates the works of over 50 women, including Thomasina Petrus, Hope Cervantes, Eliza Rasheed, Marcie Rendon, Tish Jones, Beverly Cottman, Carolyn Holbrook, Jada Daniels, Ivory Doublette and Shavunda Horsley.
The Intermedia fall season also includes "Reconciliation," Marisa Carr's drama that is set in a future where indigenous people have been imprisoned for failing to reconcile. Dipankar Mukherjee directs for Pangea World Theater (Nov. 14-23).
