A special preview performance of "Under the Skin," a concert series debuting new compositions.

Under the Skin explores the complex relationships we hold with our physical, mental, and spiritual bodies, and how these deeply personal experiences can become points of connection with others. Through music, movement, and visual art, this program examines what it means to live inside a body: to negotiate pleasure, pain, agency, and self-perception.

The composers, performers, artists, and dancers featured in this recital represent a wide range of perspectives across the gender spectrum. Together, they celebrate the many intersections of the femme experience and invite reflection, conversation, and collective witnessing. Interactive elements, such as writing, coloring, and participatory music-making, invite the audience to share their experiences too.

Featuring world-premiers by Chloe Smith, Yangfan Xu, Athos Maelstrom, Manuela Cardona, Kayla Cashetta, and Mikayla Frank-Martin. Additional works by Jacob TV and Jane Rigler.
