SUBSCRIPT - DUAL RIVET

Subscript” is Dual Rivet’s new evening length dance performance based off their last short film, IN CAPSULE. This new work explores the concepts of reality vs perception; questioning how much of our lives are controlled for us and how much control we truly have. Do we ever fully understand the structures we are subscribing to?
