Shows Added for Whitney White's DEFINITION: AN INSTALLATION EXPERIENCE Presented by The Bushwick Starr

This socially distant installation experience is inspired by DEFINITION, an upcoming musical that takes a surrealist look at an African American woman's inner awakenings. Created by director and musician Whitney White (director of Alexis Scheer's Our Dear Dead Drug Lord at WP Theater and Second Stage, director of Aleshea Harris' What To Send Up When It Goes Down at ART, Woolly Mammoth, and The Public Theater), this multi-media event will take the audience through a guided journey with pre-recorded text and music. DEFINITION is presented in partnership with The Bushwick Starr and will feature works from US-based artists within the mediums of: video, design, photography, painting, drawing, and other visual forms, speaking to the themes of Black women's mental, physical, and sexual health.

The creative team includes: Composer/Music Director/Sound Designer Dan Rosato; Scenic/Props Designer Dan Soule; Lighting Designer Stacey Derosier; Video Designer Johnny Moreno; Voice Performers Russell G. Jones, Mary Knapp, Nate Miller, Grace Porter, and Ari'el Stachel; Recording Musicians Toru Dodo, Chris Eddleton, Jannina Norpoth, and John-Paul Norpoth; Sound Mixers Ryan Hopper & Hill; Associate Director/Associate Producer Rebecca Miller Kratzer; Installation Coordinator Keyana Hemphill; Associate Producer Jordan Delise Fleming; Line Producer John Del Gaudio

The list of participating visual and multimedia artists from across the country whose work will be included in the installation, will be announced at a later date.

DEFINITION was previously workshopped with Ars Nova and Sundance Theatre Institute. It also received a reading as part of The Bushwick Starr Reading Series. DEFINITION is supported in part by an award from the National Endowment for the Arts, and The MAP Fund, supported by the Doris Duke Charitable Foundation and the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation.
