The
Clothesline Muse
The
Clothesline Muse is
a multi-disciplinary theater project that explores the clothesline as
a metaphor of our community lifeline and its ties to our social
history and current environment. The performance honors our ancestors
and their stories by transforming the task of washing clothes by hand
into beautiful imagery that includes dance,
live
music (voice and percussion), spoken word, interview text, video and
interactive art. The project collaborators are six-time Grammy
nominated Nnenna Freelonas “The Muse,” Maya Freelon Asante,
Kariamu Welsh, and Serena
Ebhardt.
