ODC Theater: Kayla Farrish/ Decent Structures Arts presents Put Away the Fire, dear
A solemn-looking African American individual is facing the camera, half of their face obscured in shadow. In the background of a dimly lit room, to the right, sits a man in a reclining chair, looking down towards the ground.
Put Away the Fire, dear is an evening-length premiere that dreams in frames of Old Hollywood cinema revamped and remixed for live group performance. Exploration of film techniques, reconstruction of stories and archetypes, dance theater, and sound score provide the foundation for characters to bring film to life onstage and play out themes of love and darkness. Through captivating film noir, musical, romance, and thriller, Put Away the Fire, dear asks audiences to reimagine who plays the roles and what it could mean for excluded voices to hold or change these stories.
