Pegleg is pleased to announce the first show of its 2011 season, HOLD MUSIC, directed by Calla Videt and presented by Culture Project as part of Women Center Stage 2011 at the Living Theater. Performances are Saturday @ 8:00 PM, Sunday @ 7:00 PM, and Monday @ 8:00 PM March 12-March 28. Get your tickets online now.

A symphonic story about the way people listen to each other and to the world around them, HOLD MUSIC takes us on a journey into the musical world of speech and memory, language and thought. Drawing upon live music, video, movement, and text to tell intertwined and parallel stories, the performance begins with the question: Why and how does music make us feel? How do things get stuck in our head?

"Hold Music ... is one of the most engaging and exciting new works of theatre I've seen this season."

"Calla Videt (director and co-writer) and B. Walker Sampson (co-writer) ... mark themselves as artists to keep an eye on with this inventive, lively, and intelligent physical theatre piece."
