"Their actions and physical dialogues are as fluent, variegated, and disciplined as the melodies we hear and the unseen musicians they embody."

Strings Attached contrasts the thrill of playing music and being part of an ensemble with the
struggle of women musicians hustling to make a living in a man's field. Using voice-over interviews with
women of all ages in the classical, jazz, opera and folk traditions, and set to a sumptuous original
score by Obie Award-Winner Diedre L. Murray, Strings Attached explores the larger issue of the
human need to have a creative life.
The score is performed live onstage by a quintet of strings, and counterbalanced by a set of miked
floor-to-ceiling strings that are played and danced on by the Company. Stunning intersections develop
between dance and music, stillness and silence, and between the performers.
