"Movements Under the Limelight" is an immersive musical composition interacting with the unique history and architecture of the Spotlight Theater, one of Tulsa’s most iconic buildings. This project will remove the divide between frontstage and backstage to reimagine the theater as an active place of community creation and history building. Written for an ensemble of string, wind, and percussion, the performance will wind among spaces throughout the building: dressing rooms, offices, stairwells, patios. At each location, musicians will perform a piece responding to the space’s history and sonic characteristics, often using the space itself as an instrument.
