New Works Four Weeks Festival

For the third week of Red Eye Theater's fest, two new works share a bill that will turn dichotomies on their head. In "Peripheries," Crystal Myslajek and John Marks use piano, voice, projections and found sounds in a multimedia work that searches for the in-between space between resonance and dissonance, analog and digital, and composition and improvisation. Meanwhile, Theresa Madaus of the group Mad King Thomas steps into her own with "Read My/Lips Don't Lie," which incorporates lip sync, drag, dance and hidden desire as the choreographer tears down constructions of gender and reality. Joining Madaus are Megan Mayer and Stephanie Stoumbelis. (8 p.m. Thu.-Sat., 7 p.m. Sun., 15 W. 14th St., Mpls., $10-$15, 612-870-0309, redeyetheater.org).
