High Concept Labs Takeover: A.Pe.Ri.Od.Ic, Emma Draves, Runaways Lab

May 19, 2017 @ 7:00 pm - 9:00 pm

Free

a.pe.ri.od.ic is a Chicago-based performance collective featuring post-Cagean notated, acoustic, experimental music. Founded in 2010, a.pe.ri.od.ic’s repertoire explores the indeterminacy of various musical elements including instrumentation, structure, pitch, and/or duration. Drawn to works of sparseness, contemplation, and quietude, this “daring group” (Chicago Reader) focuses on scores primarily notated with prose. The ensemble is devoted to performing works of the Wandelweiser collective, in addition to other living experimental composers based primarily in the US and Europe.

Emma Draves is a dance artist and educator examining identity, narrative, and emotional landscape. Draves’ work draws from her multi-disciplinary training in modern, ballet, bharatanatyam, and Laban Movement Analysis.

The Runaways Lab is a Chicago theater company that produces work free from expectations of traditional theatrical performance. Our audience engages with the thrilling, DIY nature of our theatre that is stripped to basic carnal and emotional experiences.

High Concept Labs (HCL) supports artists and facilitates dialogue between artists, audiences, and staff. This increases access and transparency to the artistic process and fosters transformational experiences in an environment of experimentation and discovery. Highconceptlabs.org. Artists performing: Stephan Moore, Jeanette Andrews, Courtney Mackedanz, Anthea Behm, Becky Grajeda, Kristina Isabelle, Deidre Huckabay, a.pe.ri.od.ic, Vaudeo Motion, Mike Oleon of Rough House Theater, and Emma Draves.
