A seven week residency at 3LD Art and Tecnology Center in New York City culminated in the world premiere of The Only Tribe. The piece ran from December 3rd until December 20th, 2008. The audiences loved it!  Reviews  were mixed, but on the whole positive. (You can read some of them here).

Conceived by Roland Gebhardt, this unique theatrical experience utilizes masks, dance, sound, lighting and projected images to explore issues of societal identity in an abstract interpretation of a short story by Rebecca Bannor-Addae. Choreography by Peter Kyle, music by Stephen Barber, video design by Reid Farrington, and lighting design by Stephen Arnold.

Featuring dancers Christina Amendolia, Vincent McCloskey, Océane McCord, Rebecca Rainey, Ellenore Scott, Diego Vásquez, Emily Walsh, and Matthew Westerby.

Development of The Only Tribe continues after the residency at 3LD. Alternate venues in the United States and Europe are being explored to host future productions of the piece.

The production of The Only Tribe was made possible in part by a grant from The Greenwall Foundation. Support for this 3LD Artist Residency was provided by American Express. We also would like to thank our friends for their support, without which the production of The Only Tribe would not be possible.
