IMAGINARY premiered at the Flynn Center for the Performing Arts, February 23-24, 2018
Mixing dance/theater, storytelling, video, and original audio scores, Lida Winfield creates IMAGINARY, a deep, quirky, innovative and socially poignant work that explores perception in relationship to the imagination. IMAGINARY investigates the impact of the imagination and its interplay between social and cultural constructs.
IMAGINARY playfully and directly challenges our expectations and perceptions of ourselves, others and our world. At a time where fearmongering about “the other” is at its peak, exploring our perceptions around identity is critical. Creativity, community and strong voices are deeply needed at this time of division, fear and misinformation. IMAGINARY investigates our real and imagined perceptions of each other and the impact these impressions have. What do we have in common? How are we different from each other? How does imagination contribute to our fears?
