Prey is a marriage between the raw, blind intensity
to survive with a tender reverence for life. This
constant internal struggle plays out in this site-
based work where threat of confinement or release,
abandonment and restriction haunt those that travel
within its walls. Inspired by the diverse and
intense works within Richard Einhorn’s acclaimed
score, Voices of Light, Prey reveals the close
kinships between brutality and tenderness, cowardice
and heroism in both animal and human form. This site
based version creates an architectural relationship
between the building and the dance itself, pushing
the limits of dimension and capacity to their most
extreme. The building becomes more than a neutral
shell but a character within which architecture,
light and costuming intermingle to create a
terrifyingly austere yet heart-clutchingly tangible environment.
Choreography by Shannon Hummel in collaboration with the dancers
