Searching: for signal — A Modern Romance
Touch Performance Art, the team that brought AcousticaElectronica, and SexyBack: or what you will to OBERON returns with their new show that infuses dialogue, dance, and video. Searching for Signal is a contemporary theater experience that captures a slice of life in this fast-changing digital world of missed connections as two dreamers struggle to separate their virtual identities from who they really are.
“Movement is the main form of shorthand used here, and it signifies thoughts and feelings, with the ensemble doing some exhilarating work. But the most passionate pieces belong to the key players: Catching sight of each other on different occasions, Jack and Kat each glide into fraught episodes of dance that throb with urgency and yearning.” — EdgeBoston
