Choreographer and dancer Jerron Herman joins with longtime collaborator Candace L. Feldman to develop Many Ways to Raise a Fist, a full-length devised theater piece produced by INTERIM and featuring a fully disabled cast. Drawing from Aeschylus’ Oresteia, where justice and superego are entangled in an eternal battle, the play centers Pros, who sits marooned on a literal and metaphorical island awaiting a trial on his “thought crimes.” The piece is written and performed by Herman, based on a 2019 solo. This new extension welcomes multifaceted artists Christopher Unpezverde Núñez, Ogemdi Ude, and vocalist/composer Molly Joyce. Together the ensemble will, through litigation and Structuralism, devise defenses that interrogate the method and necessity of protest.
