Saturday June 24th at 8pm please join us at Abrons Arts Center for Cape—Lamb’s major stage debut co-directed by Ava Elizabeth Novak. Cape is a muso-poetical play that follows five characters who live on an unnamed coastal landmass in the early 1500s. One day, a portal door materializes on the cape; the passageway allows one to instantly traverse thousands of miles of global distance. Braced against this new apprehension of the world, the characters—Lamb, the Lovers, the Cartographer, the Conductor, and the Voice—grapple with world-mapping, self-coordination, and relation in a suddenly global [removed];
Through the ritual of performance, Lamb and Novak consider what kind of ontological reckonings indigenous lives on the cape undergo when their finistère (end of the earth) becomes a point of relay. This performance is organized as part of The Kitchen x Montez Press Radio’s 12-Month Residency, and tickets can be purchased here.
