Taking off from the sexual assault of reporter Lara Logan while covering the Tahir Square uprising, this soundscape performance explores the sexualization of women and the everyday absorption of cataclysmic trauma.  Music, spoken word, advanced vocal techniques, the works.

MAKE A NIGHT OF IT:  This early you'd want a Pamplemouse:  pour 1 oz. Gin, 1/2 oz. St-Germain, 1 oz. grapefruit juice, and 1/2 oz. lemon juice into an ice-filled cocktail shaker.  Shake.  Strain into a chilled white wine glass.  Garnish with a basil leaf or two.
