Gestures is a new object opera by Megan Murtha which I have been directing in its early rehearsals during Megan’s residency at Target Margin Theater.

We’ll be showing a bit of our work on December 15th at 3pm at THE DOXSEE THEATER at Target Margin Theater’s home in Sunset Park (232 52nd St, Brooklyn). This afternoon’s showing is paired with fellow artists in residence Catherine Brookman and Lisa Fagan.

Gestures is an abstract piece featuring the talents of Leonie Bell, Kaaron Briscoe, Megan Lang, Emma Wiseman, Julia Sirna-Frest, Maggie Robbinson Katz, and Katie Proulx who sing and puppeteer objects of paper and yarn.

I can’t even begin to express how excited I am to be involved in the making of this piece. Stay tuned for more!
