Laurie Sefton is an award-winning choreographer, director and creative thinker, a Los Angeles native, and granddaughter of a Cuban immigrant. Returning from her successful stint at as Choreographer and Assistant Director for Onward (with Isabella Rossellini and Andy Bright), Laurie presents the world premiere of her new untitled work. In this work, Laurie seeks to understand the state of our unmoored society where the psychological impact of the global pandemic continues to reverberate. Connected and divided, we are struggling and striving towards our own path, with the knowledge that we are singular regardless of the bonds of community and relationships. The evening is rounded out by repertory works by Sefton including More Please (2014) and the critically acclaimed The Mythology of Self with a photographer live onstage and visual artist altering their perception of the performers. Much of the evening is performed to original works by Erika Poh, Bryan Curt Kostors, Sasha Matson and Victoria Vasta. More info at www.laurieseftoncreates.com
