Green Music Center and Liz Lerman

An evening-length dance-theater piece, “Wicked Bodies (Sonoma),” wonders why some knowledge is celebrated, some criminalized, and some erased altogether.

Long-time arts leader and choreographer Liz Lerman, known for her intensive collaborations with experts and communities in developing multi-disciplinary works, will bring her latest project to Sonoma State University’s Green Music Center. As she has done in the past, Lerman is creating “Wicked Bodies (Sonoma)” as part of a multi-site project developed through deep engagement with communities around the country. The resulting work, exploring depictions of women’s bodies across multiple historic periods, will be unique to Sonoma County, incorporating the particular experiences and concerns of local community members through a series of developmental residencies at Green Music Center.
