When a world ends, does it leave behind a corpse?

Vulture is an experimental, partially improvised dance work that falls apart and reforms. Dancers work their way through a detailed score to rupture through frames of performance, togetherness, and expectation. The expansive design teeters between the surreal and the practical, and the scenes onstage cycle between impersonal care, disorientation, and compulsion.
