sick sad world

A collaborative dance piece by Jessie Young and Iris McCloughan, presented by the Brooklyn Arts Exchange (BAX) and PAGEANT. The performance was an evening-length work that merged sensation-driven choreography with fragmented speech, character, and plot elements. The piece featured a variety of evocative objects, including a silk slip, a high-heeled boot, and a microphone, creating a shifting, foggy landscape that evolved from a pas de deux to a folie à deux.

The performance explored complex emotional and psychological landscapes, blurring the lines between movement and text to create an immersive experience for the audience.
