New series curators Brian Kalkbrenner and R.A. Villanueva invite you to
Experiments & Disorders, a reading series devoted to the investigation
of new poetic forms. Each performance will feature emerging and
established writers who endeavor to undefine the boundaries between
fiction, poetry, drama, and the extratextual. On 2 April, we will
continue the 2008-09 season with performances by Dan Hoy and Guest
Species in the Conference House.
Dixon Place is a non-profit organization founded in 1986 to provide a
space for literary and performing artists to create and develop new
works in front of a live audience. An artistic laboratory, we serve as a
safety net, enabling artists to present challenging and questioning work
that pushes the limits of artistic expression.
