Join us Fridays at noon for the latest Turnbull series that examines queer and binary representation within the world of art and design, as well as its audiences. The series coincides with and is conceptually aligned with Lehman College Art Gallery’s spring 2023 exhibition, Queer Love: Affection and Romance in Contemporary Art.

The Lehman College Department of Music, Multimedia, Theatre & Dance presents

Kenopsia: A fairy tale for the apocalypse

Friday, Nov. 20 and Saturday, Nov. 21

7 p.m.

Show will be followed by a conversation with the cast.

Description:

Kenopsia is a word, coined by John Koening, from the Dictionary of Obscure Sorrows. It describes "the eerie, forlorn atmosphere of a place that is usually bustling with people but is now abandoned and quiet." This theme served as a starting point for a devised piece created collaboratively with the cast and designers. The story is told through a variety of mediums including movement, text, costumes, sound, and images. Through a process of improvisation and collaboration, performers have created characters and content drawn from archetypal imagery and their own imaginations.

Conceived and directed by Amy Larimer
