Making art is hard. Basically all the time you feel like a self-involved martyr for a cause that no one actually cares about. But then you think deep down that they should care. Cause it is kind of everything. It can matter. Right? Schmoetics is Tina’s Poetics talk – an earnest, evolving, and self-reflective consideration of dramatic theory and making performance.
Lead Artist: Tina Satter was recently described as an “emerging experimental star” by The New York Times and named a “2011 Off-Off Broadway Innovator to Watch” by Time Out New York, who noted her “sparky brilliance.” She is the artistic director of the performance company Half Straddle formed in 2008.
Upcoming: Seagull (Thinking of You) will be developed in residency at the New Museum in Fall/Winter 2012 and at MASSMoCA in December 2012, and will premiere during PS122’s COIL festival in January 2013.
