Bill Coleman & Gordon Monahan

Bill Coleman & Gordon Monahan Choreographer Bill Coleman & sound artist Gordon Monahan inhabit an object-laden stage that collapses around them as they descend into chaos.

In Dollhouse, contemporary dance master and choreographer Bill Coleman portrays a figure whose whole world is literally falling in around him. Inhabiting an object-laden room that collapses and breaks at his every touch, Coleman shares the stage with sound artist Gordon Monahan and his unique score, which accompanies the dancer’s descent into chaos. The environment seems to move of its own accord

as its occupant tap-dances through 60 minutes of theatrical disintegration. Occupying Monahan’s experimental musical soundscape and landscape, Coleman plays the role of modern fakir as he suffers through what at times are comic situations on his way to sonic and visual pandemonium. Both eye-popping spectacle and unique score, Dollhouse encompasses tap dancing, performance art, sound installation, slapstick, and interactive physical action in which mechanical and electronic objects, both handmade and found, deliver disrupting and surprising rhythms for the ears and eyes. Dollhouse is represented by Fove Diffusion. For bookings, please contact: Stephanie Hinton at [email protected] / +1-514-570-1002
