Thread / Filatures (working titles)
Performance and Choreography by Margie Gillis

Like Ariane who led Theseus out of the Labyrinth with her red thread, thus saving him from the Minotaur, Margie Gillis guides us through an exploration of our own personal maze. Thread / Filatures is a textile metaphor for our humanity. The layered dimensions of the piece compel us to reflect upon the challenges and miracles that are threaded into the complex lace of our path towards maturity, towards letting-go and acceptance. Thread / Filatures exposes the rope that trips us up, the twine that tethers us, the strings that attach us, the cords we cut, the ribbons that glorify us...
