In Hexes and Heroes, playing at Chicago’s Links Hall from January 28 through 30, Erica Mott and Meredith Miller provide a double bill of movement, puppetry, and song deconstructing romantic notions, death and heroicism.

In “I Wish You Love: A Puppetry Songbook,” Meredith Miller presents new works in her signature style of cabaret puppetry creating intimate, atmospheric world of timeless love and loss.

Erica will present new works in progress from her explorations into the body’s relationship with technology and machinery and the complicated relationship between the female body, war, and notions of victory. Erica is a Chicago Dancemakers Forum Lab artist and will be presenting works as part of her year of inquiry into the complexities of female bodies in labor and war.

January 28-30: Fri & Sat at 8pm / Sun at 7pm / Tickets $8
