SAVE THE DATE for the premiere of Factory|Refractory!
Factory/Refractory, as a nod to Andy Warhol's Factory events, is a tribute to the city and its people;
the immersive multimedium dance theatre piece explores Artistic Director Eryc Taylor's real-life
experiences of NYC in the mid-1990s. As a cabaret-style, multi-sensory experience in
four parts, the work addresses addiction, mental health, the HIV/AIDS crisis, recovery,
struggle, and destiny. It also celebrates the vibrant queer nightlife scene born from the
era and the inspiring forces that shaped Taylor's dance, choreography, and vision with
original scores by Daniel Tobias to reflect the time and mood of the work as a whole.
