Dance Heginbotham’s You Look Like a Fun Guy

Dance Heginbotham’s You Look Like a Fun Guy is an outdoor performance event inspired by John Cage’s interest in mycology and his methods of composing music. With live rebroadcasting and heightening the natural sonic environment, Omar Zubair’s audio installation plays with the audience’s perception of reality. Audiences will be transported from dusk to an illuminated special installation by Emma Deane’s lighting design and costumes by Maile Okamura.

Directed and choreographed by John Heginbotham, You Look Like a Fun Guy celebrates Cage’s rigorous and playful concerns as well as the astonishing nature and behavior of fungi. This world-premiere performance event, shaped and informed by the Garden’s singular setting, responds to the natural environment it inhabits.

Tickets will be available in July.
