TICKETS + INFORMATION

I don’t, as a rule, List non-live non-interactive pieces (you know: films). But this seems “performative” enough — it’s being screened twice, and not streamed (I mean, I’m sure it’ll be screened more widely and made remotely available soon) (but as you’ll see, it’s very tied to this venue) — to make it. Besides, it’s sort List central. During The Lockdown, performance artist/choreographer/novelist Andrea Kleine was supposed to performing at the Chocolate Factory. But of course, she couldn’t. So instead she and her boo, percussionist Bobby Previte, moved into the Chocolate Factory for two weeks, and she made this film of their life there, performing on stage each night for no one.
