BIND: a workshop performance of a new play by Kate R. Morris
When two young artists find themselves with a horrific choice—to take a life or risk their own for a chance at fame, they become entwined in the world of the famous reclusive sculptor Magda Tournette, who forces them question the true nature of Art, and what it takes to set us free. Spinning together poetry, dance, and theatre, Bind is a contemporary fairytale about power, wool, creativity, and the survival of our planet.
