Souled Out is written and performed by Alexis Caputo.
Souled Out examines slavery and its by-products through memory, dialogue,
poetry and dance (movement). It declares and documents the parallels of
slavery and the arguable concept of freedom. Souled Out challenges and
begs the question of what freedom is on multiple levels. Choreographers
Michelle Grant-Murray and Luctricia Welters support the life of the piece,
beautifully with their personal translations of the spoken and written
word. |
