In Between Things

IN BETWEEN THINGS A series of shows about unexpected encounter. In Between Things is a site-responsive performance series integrating contemporary dance, live music, participatory installation, and gathering created by Ishaan Goel & Sarah Yasmine Marazzi-Sassoon. Across three distinct spaces in New York City, audiences move between participation and observation—encountering dance, live music, interactive installation, and one another in environments shaped by the architecture and moods of each venue. Each showing is a slightly different experience. Come to one, or follow the project across all three. PLEASE NOTE that once doors close, there is NO LATE ENTRY. We cannot make exceptions because this is an immersive performance piece, and late entry would disrupt everyone else's experience. Make sure you are on time. 01 — OPENING CEREMONY Sunday, September 27 · 6:00 PM Brooklyn Peace Center · Bed-Stuy 23 Marcus Garvey Blvd, Brooklyn Move together with the audience through the different floors of Brooklyn Peace Center. Along the way, take part in a sequence of group rituals while encountering contemporary dance and live music throughout the building. The first show is staged as a ceremony: collective, sequential, and sacred. 02 — MIDDLE GROUND Wednesday, October 7 · 7:00 PM Moonzescope · West Village 178 Bleecker Street, New York Wander and explore the space on your own terms. Dance and live music unfold around you, while unexpected interactions, installations, and encounters emerge throughout the corridors and corners of this winding pop-up space. Unlike the Opening Ceremony, there is no single path to follow. Choose where to go, what to notice, and how long to linger. 03 — CLOSING BALL Saturday, October 17 · 7:30 PM Box of Moonlight · Bushwick 17 Saratoga Ave, Brooklyn Celebrate the closing of In Between Things with a masquerade party just in time for Halloween. Performances emerge throughout the evening from unsuspecting corners all while faces remain hidden until the end of the night. Part performance, part party, Ends the series through mystery and celebration just in time for Halloween. ABOUT THE PROJECT No two showings are alike. Each is a complete experience on its own, so attend the one that draws you—or follow the project across all three to see how it transforms. The project explores the connections with others, ourselves, and our surroundings that form unexpectedly: through shared rituals, repeated encounters, and the environments in which we find ourselves. Rather than treating performance as separate from its context, we approach the entire gathering as the work. Together, the three iterations form an evolving study of intimacy, chance encounter, and the relationships that emerge around a shared experience.
