Triptych (Eyes of One on Another)

Triptych (Eyes of One on Another) is the first theatrical performance granted permission to explore and integrate the work of Robert Mapplethorpe. Reflecting deeply on the continued impact of the late visual artist's photography, the East Coast premiere of this theater piece by librettist Korde Arrington Tuttle and composer Bryce Dessner brings together choral ensemble Roomful of Teeth, vocalist-violinist-composer Caroline Shaw, and the poetry of Patti Smith and Essex Hemphill, with projections of Mapplethorpe’s breathtaking images.
