what will it take for
YOU
to leave home? (working title)
a raw, audience immersive work — an unprecedented artistic collaboration with the renowned international humanitarian organization, Doctors Without Borders/Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) and CORNINGWORKS,
what will it take to make YOU leave home? is a full evening-length production using the refugee experience as the catalyst to illuminate the world’s current and growing fragile situation.
Timely, socially conscious, and provocative, what will it take to make YOU leave home? immerses audiences into the dissociative reality of our global refugees’ lives. Created for intimately sized audiences, this multidisciplinary production puts a human face on the sensationalized media coverage of the refugee, a tangible taste of what it truly looks like, feels like, and means to be forced from one’s home – a work not so about “them” but rather . . how this could be us . . .
choreography & conception: Beth Corning
co director: Gab Cody
set design: Stephanie Mayer Staley
projection design Joe Spinogatti
lighting design: Iain Court
performed at
CARRICK 25, the new performance venue located at the former
