What does belonging mean in a family line? [ ] is a corporeal-sonic exploration into the untold histories of our femme ancestors co-created by choreographer Adrienne Westwood and composer Angélica Negrón, along with an interdisciplinary group of performers and creatives. [ ] is a dual experience of intimate performance and participatory installation. The work is anchored by an interactive musical sculpture from which “memories”– a collection of simple yet evocative objects – are suspended. [ ] calls in and holds experiences of private and personal memories of family lore, real/imagined histories, and femme ancestor's visible/invisible labor, ultimately asking “What is long ago but still right now?”

Internationally acclaimed for his visual art and theater productions, South African artist William Kentridge returns to UC Berkeley with his latest creation for the stage, a chamber opera set on a 1941 sea voyage from Marseille to Martinique. Conceived in collaboration with theater maker Phala Ookeditse Phala and choral conductor and dancer Nhlanhla Mahlangu, The Great Yes, The Great No fictionalizes the historic wartime escape from Vichy France by, among others, the surrealist André Breton, the anthropologist Claude Lévi-Strauss, and the Cuban artist Wifredo Lam—and imaginatively adds a distinguished and colorful cast of characters to the passenger list, like Aimé Césaire, Josephine Baker, Leon Trotsky, and Joseph Stalin.

HotHouse is a commentary on confinement and an exploration of how the COVID-19 pandemic unmasked the greater systemic failures of America. In this evening-length duet, props and clothing are suspended inside of a plastic arena. The enclosed environment serves as an adaptable canvas, transforming into a medical isolation unit, a slaughterhouse, a prison cell, a church. As the narrative unfolds, audiences are witness to the trauma of isolation and the myth of White Jesus.

What can a dance do to confront the constant grief that we experience in our lives? Super Nothing presents four dancers whose actions and choreographic relationships are analogues for how people support each other to survive. Interdependence takes multiple forms, as the performers move through representations of the past to create a blueprint for a new future. This piece extends Gutierrez’s interest over the past few years in creating “choreography for the end of the world.”
