A series of interlocking monologues from characters living in a comically noir hellscape filled with crime, misfortune, and occasional ghosts.

Running Line, by RAD Dancers.

This piece is a visual interpretation using real letters written between members of the RAD dance troupe and prison inmate Jason, who served a ten year sentence. The letters describe life on the inside, fantasies of the outside, frustrations, hopes, politics, friendship, and of course, poetry. Bringing the words of Jason to life through movement, the RAD Dancers explore the mental isolation of solitary confinement and the ultimate longing for human connection.
