Strings Attached contrasts the thrill of playing music and being part of an ensemble
with the struggle of women musicians hustling to make a living in a man's field. Using voice-over
interviews with women of all ages in the classical, jazz, opera and folk traditions, and set to a
sumptuous original score by Obie Award-Winner Diedre L. Murray, Strings Attached explores the larger
issue of the human need to have a creative life.
The score is performed live onstage by a quintet of strings, and counterbalanced by a set of miked
floor-to-ceiling strings that are played and danced on by the Company. Stunning intersections develop
between dance and music, stillness and silence, and between the performers.
