DINNER is a multimodal dance theater melodrama about a group of long-time queer friends reckoning with the loss (read: the ghosting) of group figurehead, Jo. Through dancing with overfull wine glasses, two guitars played by one person, one accordion played by two people, and a sampling of light refreshments, DINNER documents the hyper-modern experience of dear, queer friendships through radical, ensemble-driven tragicomedy. This project was devised over a series of actual dinner parties.
