Long Playing

Join us for a new dance duet by long-time collaborators Rachael Lincoln and Leslie Seiters.
Long Playing is a training, a tribute, a trial, a social gathering for bodies still learning how to
be animals, fully together and lost in a crowd. Lincoln and Seiters oscillate between decisive
action that is explicit, clear, and demanding, and a receptive stance that is patient, wide, and
behind the scenes. Between making a stand and making space, they navigate the impacts
and limitations of each of these modes. Viewers of Long Playing have found evidence of a
mercurial relationship, a critique of capitalism, an unfolding ritual, and of transformation. It
calls on fictitious guides, animal instincts, and a long history of making together.
