Art theatre designed to infect the mind @ the interwebz
Founded in 1995, The LIDA Project is a meta-media art collective dedicated to experimental live performance.
Since the company’s founding, LIDA has maintained a vigorous and strong commitment to the growth of the avant-garde in the American Theatre. Working as a permanent company of artists and technicians, The LIDA Project builds new works for the theatre based on a unique long-form collaborative process for devising new work.
Part science lab, part disco, Roller Skating With My Cousin is a lively, dark romp in which synchronized roller skaters build a tower under a star-flecked mirror ball sky.
The citizens are easily roused and swayed, as a culture of fear infects the city with the constant threat of execution.
Inspired by Georg Büchner’s unfinished masterpiece, Woyzeck, The LIDA Project reinterprets the story of a young soldier returning from the horrors of war.
We created this site-specific and interactive performance as an opening act for the Dresden Dolls – performed in the lobby.
