Horrible Truths Of the Ruling Class

Synopsis:
the heavy gates of an elite New York City junior high swing open to reveal the surreal education of four future titans: sex, money, and the Ivy League are all within grasp - if only they can live long enough to graduate. Horrible Truths of the Ruling Class takes a look at powerful people and just why exactly, and just how exactly they are so wretched, unstoppable, magnetic, and wonderful. Beginning with the insight that everything terrible in the world begins in junior high, HTRC recreates that toxic primordial sludge at the exact moment when astral lightning struck and initiated the crystalline ladder-dance of life.

Lake

Synopsis:
Combining lyrical text, original choreography, and multimedia installation, Lake raises questions on the ever-evolving ways and reasons we go about documentation. Meet amy and Nolan: she, an unemployable antique enthusiast; he, a man who can't seem to stop making boats by the thousands. Upon dying in a monumental flood, they encounter each other in the hereafter-which happens to take the from of an abandoned waterlogged film studio. Recounting their life together reveals discrepancies, memories at odds with each other and a fear that their stories remain unidentified and forgotten-amy and Nolan must utilize the tools of the newfound studio to craft a docuDrama on the life, love and boats they left behind
