SOUNDSTAGE

September 2018

SOUNDSTAGE is an audio and visual performance poem created by artist Rob Roth. Using the language of cinema, the piece reflects and refracts a ‘meditation on the muse’ and her remedy for loneliness. Through a queer lens, the piece focuses on alternative realities blending and dissolving in a metaphysical and alchemic journey where sound, time, gender, and fantasy transform.

Additional support for Soundstage provided by the Edith Lutyens and Norman Bel Geddes Design Enhancement Fund, mediaThe foundation, the Puffin Foundation, and the New York State Council on the Arts, with the support of Governor Andrew Cuomo and the New York State Legislature.
