Songs of Protest and Resistance
Nueva Canción: Songs of Protest and Resistance (CONCERT VERSION) is a new, music-based multimedia event created by Sandra Powers and Timur, and performed by the glam rock band Timur and the Dime Museum. Produced by Beth Morrison Projects, the concert is rooted in the Latin American song movement that began in the 1960s and criticized political oppression and spurred sociopolitical change. Nueva Canción focuses on the songbook of Mercedes Sosa, the driving force behind the movement. In addition, Timur’s memories of being raised under communism and then witnessing the collapse of the Soviet Union will provide a personal perspective on the complexity of political regimes.
RSVPs open Tuesday, February 11, 2020, at 10 a.m.
Nueva Canción: Songs of Protest and Resistance is a National Performance Network/Visual Artists Network (NPN/VAN) Creation and Development Fund Project co-commissioned by Beth Morrison Projects in partnership with Miami Light Project and NPN.

Anita Berber Is Dead!
November 14 - 24, 2019
Set in Post-World War I Germany, Anita Berber is Dead! follows Anita’s struggle to create an identity free from constraint and a new mode of expression that explodes artistic boundaries. Defiant and extreme, her work reaches its apotheosis in the stunning, strange, and ultimately doomed creation: “Dances of Lust, Horror and Ecstasy” which sees her banned from the concert halls of Germany and Austria. Timur is singing the role of Sebastian, the husband of Anita, in this dark night club style production by Independent Shakespeare Co. Includes nudity, explicit language, depictions of drug use, and sexual situations. Proceed with caution.
