On April 27, The Barn at Gravity Hill in Titusville is hosting
a special performance/workshop combination
to explore colonization, liberation and creativity.


It features a preview of a work-in-progress play,
THE GOOD MANNERS OF COLONIZED SUBJECTS
preceded by a creativity session.

The creativity session begins at 2 pm and runs 45 min
The play begins at 3:30pm and runs 75 minutes.


The free storypoem session,  included in the price of the ticket,
is a preview of the cross cultural embodied dance workshops
that will accompany the play in the future.
If you prefer, please feel free to arrive later at 3:30pm for the performance.


THE PLAY
The Good Manners of Colonized Subjects
is a
solo play about a human animal, fragmented by colonization, who journeys through memoir and myth to confront fear and reclaim lost poetry and dance, indigenous to her spirit, collective to the species.

Written and performed by India-born, New Mexico-based artist
Shebana Coelho, it interweaves poetry, monologues, improvisation and choreography drawn from flamenco and Sanskrit classical theater.

At a time when the lingering effects of colonization are manifesting in fraught conversations about borders and fear of the other, the narrative unravels the insidious ways colonization works inside and outside the skin, through culture, history, emotion and offers a healing alchemy of metaphor and movement.

The text is in English...with threads of Urdu, Portuguese,
Spanish, Caló, Konkani, Mongolian.


The project is currently being workshopped through a grassroots tour to preview the play, build audiences and fundraise for the final production. 

As part of a new cross-cultural initiative, Faraway is Close, it will be presented
with creativity workshops that nurture participants
to stand up in their own story.

Co-owners David Earling and Maria Nicolo wanted to create a farm rooted in their community, and of service to that community. Their non-profit mission is to offer a space and programming for issues connecting food, nature, sustainability and community.  www.thebarnatgravityhill.com
