Performance Space 122 & 2013 PEN World Voices Festival presents two NY premieres…
The Quiet Volume | April 29 – May 5
by Ant Hampton and Tim Etchells
Cue China (Elsewhere, Offshore) | May 1 – 5
By Ant Hampton
Exploring a new type of automatic performance, an audience of exactly two people perform the pieces themselves and for each other through listening to whispered instructions via headphones, iPods and teleprompters. No actors, no audience members, just the two participants themselves. Ant Hampton (of UK’s Rotozaza) in collaboration with artist Tim Etchells delve into the strange magic at the heart of reading and bring us face to face with those perceived too often as voiceless, ‘faceless’ and conveniently distant.
Single Tickets $10 | ps122.org
Performances run in cycles throughout the day. For locations, dates and more info: ps122.org/anthampton
