Rivera Court: a site-specific dance-theater performance with and inside Rivera Court. Drawing inspiration from the murals, we compare the industrial mechanics of machinery to the biomechanics of performing bodies. The stories depicted on the walls are important to the history of Detroit, full of ritual, movements, and ghosts. Sarah and Austin layer their voice into the space and into the ongoing story of the city.
