This could be the end
Choreographer / Performer Joanna Kotze
Music Ryan Seaton

In this rigorous, dense solo, created in 2016 and relearned in 2022, Kotze was responding to the vulnerability she felt during Trump’s first presidency and the lead up to the 2022 midterms by exploring power dynamics, physical and architectural boundaries, and the spectrum of humor to violence within her own body. Material from This could be the end is part of a new group piece that interrogates the phenomenon of history repeating itself, commissioned by New York Live Arts and premiering in Fall 2026..
