Making its US premiere at PS21, Life in this House is Over is an original dance-theatre piece about the social awkwardness of grief. Directed by interdisciplinary artist Samantha Shay, the piece was developed at Tanztheater Wuppertal Pina Bausch, where Shay was a guest artist & researcher.
Inspired by the writing of Anton Chekhov, the work is structured as a funeral and wake, entering into a tragicomic world beyond known logic.
