About Turtles All the Way Down

Simone Forti, Terrence Luke Johnson, Sarah Swenson and Douglas Wadle engage each other to provide an evening of sound, movement, words, reflection, humor and the unexpected revelations that only improvisation can bring. Their work is acid and sweet, funny and dead serious.

Each performer gives play to his/her own subject of interest and way of thinking, as together they weave glimpses of the world. The work is based on two premises. That if you move as you speak, your rational thinking and your body’s feeling for landscape, timing and energy, will interact. And that any four subjects will shed light on each other in particular ways. Each night, the performers decide which of their scores to work with, and though they know what subjects they will be touching on, they don’t know where the cross currents of their thoughts and energies will lead them. Performers and audience alike will be connecting the dots between travels in India, love, Italian genealogy, the rise of fascism, and ways of knowing. As each performance will be unique, you may want to visit Turtles All The Way Down more than once.
