Holy Animals by Paige Barnett Kulbeth
Homegrown from Lafayette and living in NYC, Paige Barnett Kulbeth is an artist acclaimed for her innovative integration of dance, music and video technology. Her debut stage show, Holy Animals, consists of larger-than-life projections, live music and a combination of modern and classical dance. Loosely based on Dante’s The Divine Comedy, the evening will unfold across the circles of Hell, the terraces of Purgatory and the celestial spheres of Heaven. The twist? These ethereal happenings will be retold through the female characters’ perspectives, transforming this classic story into a loud & proud, girl-power anthem!
Featured artists include:
- Mark Morris Dance Group’s, Courtney Lopes
- Lafayette’s own “vampiric rock duo,” Sick Ride
- Opera songstress, Sasha Massey
- Electronic music composer, Omar Zubair
