This new curatorial initiative by Mile Zero Dance features three local artists/groups who receive production residency support in our Warehouse venue, and present their new work in process. Join us for Zero Lab #2 featuring choreographer, Penelope Morout (CROSS IMPACT Co.) and producer/performer | Marynia Fekecz-Mangan (MfMdanceArtist)!

COME HELL OR HIGH WATER is a tribute to freedom in its pure essence. Inspired by the poems of Mary Oliver’s “Wild Geese” as well as of Maya Angelou’s “Caged Bird”, our heroes co-exist within the premises of a cabin in the woods, perpetually trying to protect their crop and send the birds away. Oscillating between reality and fiction, the dream and the nightmare, they confide personal stories and test the boundaries between society’s rigid expectations and their own free will.

Using the figure of a scarecrow as a metaphor, in order to “exorcise” ideas and standards that keep them caged within specific roles, our characters have to eventually face their own fears and self-restrictions· flocking, twirling, falling but always together, daring to claim the sky*.
