Conceived, performed by Soomi Kim
Directed by Suzi Takahashi
Adapted from the groundbreaking literary collage by late Theresa Hak Kyung Cha, DICTEE intertwines the stories of ordinary, mythic, and martyred women—including Korean revolutionary Yu Guan Soon, Joan of Arc..., Demeter and Persephone, as well as Cha herself. Korean born, NYC-based performer Soomi
Kim uses movement, video, and original music to transpose Cha’s postmodern
poetry to the stage.
