Odyssey

Tulane University's Newcomb Dance Company presents Odyssey, a piece centered on humanity's journey to the moon. This original dance piece featuring video projections from Hsuan-Kuang Hsieh with spoken word from Sha’Condria “iCon” Sibley. The performance uses The Odyssey, the epic erasure poem by Ken Hunt created from NASA’s Apollo 11 voice transcript as a springboard to explore variations on the theme of women in space. The creative team examines how women strive to hold physical and emotional space, and what occurs when that work is obscured.   

The show will run Thursday, April 20th through Tuesday, April 25th, 2023. Evening performances are at 7:30pm, with a 2:00pm matinee on Sunday April 23rd. Due to the limited capacity, reservations are encouraged. General admission is $15, students and Tulane employees are $10. Performances are in the Lupin Theatre located in 150 Dixon Hall Annex on Tulane’s uptown campus, just off the Newcomb Quad.
