Spring Open Artist Showcase Weekend 1

Theater fans looking to see some fresh works get their fill during the Spring Open Artist Showcase, presented by the Off Center for the Dramatic Arts. For the third year, new pieces by local playwrights grace the Burlington stage over two extended weekends. Weekend 1 kicks off with Let Me Tell You Something…(Perseverations), a solo storytelling performance by local theater veteran Dennis McSorley (pictured). Audience members also see Gravitations: Into the Black Sun. Created by Jocelyn Woods, this combination of video projections and live performance offers trance chanting, Sufi-esque poetry and nude male dancers in whirling-dervish intuitive choreography.
