Love in the Time of Covid

Love in the Time of Covid

October 2 – 3
2020

Love in the Time of Covid plays with an idea that the forbidden is also erogenous, that love and trust are always hard, and that the aged body can love.

Kate Story revisits previously unfinished work, a duet set to the music of Arvo Pärt, reinterpreting this bizarre mating ritual for present times by expanding on themes of forbidden zones: mouths and hands. Returning to his first independent choreographic work, Ryan Kerr presents audiences with a lyrical and hopeful affirmation of connection, love, and the present. The choreography is accompanied by musician Curtis Driedger, interpreting Lou Reed’s “Perfect Day.”

Created And Performed – Kate Story, Ryan Kerr
