Boston-born theater artist and musician Ian Andrew Askew presents Unnamed Leagues, a short performance that responds to PEM’s collections while considering contrasting histories of land and the sonic legacy of maritime trade. Askew will be in residence at PEM for a week in September, developing the performance alongside their ongoing project SLAMDANCE garage, an exploration of race and performance in punk subculture. Stay after the performance for a Q&A led by David Snider, our Director of Learning and Community Engagement.
PEM Presents seeks to surprise and delight audiences with world-class artistry in music, theater, dance, film and more. This series allows audiences to learn about the artistic process and supports the development of artists with local, regional, national and global perspectives. PEM Presents further activates the museum as a global center for art, culture and creativity with artist residencies, live performances, lecture series, symposia and conferences. PEM Presents is a collaboration between Learning and Community Engagement and the Present Tense initiative.
This program is generously supported by the Lowell Institute.
