Milk (November 10-12, 2022, Los Angeles)
The Institute of Art and Olfaction and Los Angeles based dance theatre company Volta will present the world premiere of “MILK.” Drawing in part from the Greek tragedy “Medea,” the work mixes dance, prose, sound, and scent to examine the construction of feminine desire and destruction. While writer Alexis Okeowo orates an original epic narrative, Volta will use movement to map the contemporary politics of hysteria, beauty, and revenge. Harpist Melissa Achten will score the performance live and sound architect Nicholas Snyder will create an accompanying composition. Volta is collaborating with the Institute of Art and Olfaction to develop custom blends that tell the story through scent.
