Sat Oct 10 · 7:30pm
Kyreé Miller’s live storytelling show recounts five open-heart surgeries, two LVADs and, eventually, a heart transplant, and what came after: reclaiming his body, finding his voice and learning to advocate for himself as a patient. Part performance and part audience conversation, the evening includes a Q&A and time to meet afterward. Miller presents it with his company, Five Heartbeats Productions.
Tue Oct 27 · 7:30pm
The Moth’s monthly Boston StorySLAM is an open-mic storytelling competition: anyone may put their name in to tell a true five-minute story on the night’s theme. October’s theme is “Frenemies,” about “the razor-thin line between friend and foe” — besties turned competitors, siblings who keep the score. PRX and WBUR are the media sponsors, and seating is first-come, first-served.
Sun Jan 31 · 6:00pm
Boston Dance Theater performs Unfurling, a site-responsive piece made with visual artist Kim Radochia that combines movement, sound and sculptural installation. It draws on "the quiet resilience of plant life" and on the writings of the Indigenous botanist Robin Wall Kimmerer, author of Braiding Sweetgrass, with dancers moving through the space "like tendrils of growth." Company members stay for a short talkback afterwards.
