Castle of Our Skins: Thresh & Hold
Pay-what-you-can from $1
- Zahili Gonzalez Zamora, voice
Thresh & Hold is a book of poems re-coded into a collaborative ceremony of composed and improvisational music, dance, poetry, and short film.
"Exhausted of singing in an empire’s hopeful choir", Dekine’s poems play with past, present, and future, all held within any moment, remembering the power of Black imagination for collective ancestral healing.
Join Marlanda Dekine for an evening-length, multimedia experience centered around their forthcoming full-length debut poetry collection, Thresh & Hold (Hub City Press, 2022).
With collaborative artists Victoria Lynn Awkward (Dance), Brittany J. Green (Composer), Mahkia Greene (Film), Zahili Gonzalez Zamora (Music), and Emily Bearce (Lights).
Attending in person: Lift access available for a patron in a wheelchair or for patron with mobility issues (must otherwise descend nine steps to reach the level of the theatre)
