Volcano

Closing: January 21, 2024

Volcano - 2024 Off-Broadway History , Info & More

St. Ann's Warehouse
45 Water St. Brooklyn, NY 11201

Luke Murphy’s “superbly inventive,” “exhilarating” (The Guardian) Volcano (January 10-21, 2024) spins the story of two men thrust into a social experiment in space. The work, which The Irish Times describes as “like an episode of Black Mirror on steroids,” unfolds in a wrecked living room in a glass-enclosed box, where the men reenact memories and past lives through an array of cultural references, from game shows to standup comedy. Volcano is a four-part mini-series of 45-minute episodes, presented in one continuous, binge-watch-style performance. The Irish Times explains, “[The] structure is borrowed from TV, although the storytelling is driven by physical expression rather than dialogue. Murphy’s choreography showcases the history of modern dance, from tableaux vivants of early-20th-century Greek-obsessed dancers like Raymond and Isadora Duncan through musical-theater solos à la Fred Astaire to the strobe-lit energy of 1990s rave culture.” This unique blend of theater, dance, and sci-fi thriller features dancer Will Thompson as Murphy’s partner in space. St. Ann’s Warehouse presents the U.S. Premiere in association with Irish Arts Center and in partnership with the 2024 Under the Radar Festival (Mark Russell, Festival Director; ArKtype, Festival Producer).
