THRESHOLD:

A site-specific new music performance work for the enormous, labyrinthine and magnificently sonorous Silos at Sawyer Yards (SITE Gallery).

Threshold is a mythopoetic underworld journey— a performance offering which speaks to the chaotic upheaval we are all feeling in our world. What kind of world will we create together?

Misha Penton, soprano, concept, director
George Heathco, guitars and other wonders
Luke Hubley, percussion
Music by M. Penton, G. Heathco, and L. Hubley
With Sherry Cheng, Neil Ellis Orts, and Michael Walsh

Please note: the performance is 30 minutes in duration and the audience walks and stands as we move through the space together. No seating. ADA accessible. Due to the nature of the venue and sound installation this performance is not suitable for young children.

RSVP to attend.

Entry and parking:

The SITE Gallery at the Silos is at Sawer Yards artist studios, and is part of the art campus that includes Winter St Studios. Look for the giant old rice Silos near Winter Street Studios. The performance is inside the rice Silos. Enter the arts complex from Sawyer St and turn on to Winter St, driving along the traintracks, then make your first right inbetween the buildings and another immediate right which brings you to the parking lot and entry.
