"Stupormarket" preview in TimeOut Chicago ↪
“Stupormarket succeeds at bringing a situation we regard with anger, frustration and fatigue a fresh new perspective. There’s no shortage of editorials bemoaning our financial future, but this one has its sleeves rolled up, bearing ideas that actually help.”
Zac Whittenburg
TimeOut Chicago
Stupormarket is The Seldoms’ new dance theater work about the economic blowout and the ongoing wobbly recovery. From the luxury market to the unemployment line, and the trading floor to the housing market, Stupormarket ranges broadly across the economic terrain and two different camps of economic thought, neither of which warned loudly enough.
Directed and choreographed by Artistic Director Carrie Hanson in collaboration with the company, Stupormarket is the culmination of a three-year long project about the economy, expanding upon two previous short works – Thrift (2009) and Death of a (Prada) Salesman (2009). Featuring sound design by Richard Woodbury and lighting design by Julie Ballard.
