This Could Be a Choking Hazard

A performer in a pink sleeveless top and black shorts sits barefoot on a polished wooden floor, leaning forward with an expressive open-mouthed gesture. Warm string lights frame the dim performance space behind them.

This Could Be A Choking Hazard is a modern dance turducken. A meaningful work about loneliness, hidden inside child's play, wrapped up in something entirely absurd. Inspired by talk therapy, hundreds of tiny rubber animals, and the effort of not taking oneself too seriously.

Choreographed and Performed by Julie Crothers
Music by Mike Vargas and Rob Firestone
