Perfomance at Parrish
The Parrish Art Museum in Water Mill will present the world premiere of a mixed-media theatrical adaptation of Kurt Vonnegut’s novel “Galapagos,” with performances scheduled for Monday, Wednesday, and next Thursday at 6 p.m. and on Friday, July 25, at 4 p.m., in the Lichtenstein Theater.
Created by Tucker Marder and Christian Scheider, both East End natives, the production features 26 performers, including Bob Balaban, live orchestral underscoring, elaborate animal costumes, a two-story set, experimental projections, choreography, and physical comedy. Tickets, at $20 or $10 for members and students, include admission to the museum.
Performance of a different kind will take place tomorrow at 6 p.m. with the second iteration at the Parrish of Gesture Jam, an adult figure-drawing class facilitated by Andrea Cote, an artist and educator.
The class, which will take place on the museum’s terrace, will feature live music by Nicolas Letman-Burtanovic and Sean Sonderegger. Adam and Gail Baranello, local dancers, will be the models. With food and drinks available from the Golden Pear Café, the program is both social and educational. The museum’s $10 admission fee includes the event.
