A revealing dance. An opening show.

Slit Show cuts through the masquerade of the exterior and slides along the slits to the interior. It’s a dance for a theater and an open mouth. A tease for the space between curtains and coming. An inner song longing to be shown.

Through removal of clothing, erratic moaning and deep opera, choreographer and composer Karis Zidore strips down and exposes inner states in the theater spotlight. Somewhere between erotics and entries, maskings and unmasking, sensing and exhibiting, a sincere show reveals itself from the curtains.

Who’s that slit? It’s the girl with no door on her mouth!

In the solo Slit Show the main character might be revealingly alone on stage. But she is accompanied by multitudes of loud representations and inner voices in an unexpected mash-up of moaning, stripping and opera singing. Dispersed deep red velvet curtains load the room with connotations and promises of drama, peaks and pathos. From this seemingly self aware and hyper staged setting, the main character brings the audience on an introverted journey from outside in.
