Elvis has left the building.
Elvis has left the building. is a dance/theater solo built around obsession, endurance, and perseverance while incorporating jazz dance gestures, contemporary choreography, memorable text, improvisation, and half drag. The work's attitude shifts throughout and plays with comedy and non-sequiturs. The piece begins as a rhythmic non-stop dance costumed in heels and a dress and quickly shifts gears with an athletic improvisation in sweats and a dance-worthy beat and esoteric hand gestures. A final section occurs downstage and continues the evolving focus of the work, this time using text by Haruki Murakami as a soliloquy and plea to tighten the three separate sections together.
