Lamia: A Dance-Theater Exploration

Date published/released:
2016
Lamia: A Dance-Theater Exploration (by Molly Haas-Hooven, dir. Suzanne Karpinski) ran at the New York Fringe festival in August 2016. Karpinski describes it as "the story of a snake who is given the chance to become human so she can pursue the man she desires. Based originally on the John Keats poem, it is told through a unique blending of dance, live rock music, fashion and poetry. We explore what it means to idealize romance rather than accept our partners for who they really are."
