The Arts Council of Tamworth will be presenting Belonging and Othering, an exciting new stage production from the beheard.world artistic troupe, featuring a collaboration of nine dancers/choreographers, three poets and two filmmakers who have created a piece where “belonging” and “othering” intersect, opening a window into underlying parts of tribalism and bias that keep us divided.

The multi-media performance piece will screen seven local storytellers who have experienced being “othered.” The storytellers focus on racism, gender bias, immigration prejudice and LGBTQ issues. As each story is told, on a large 20’x20′ screen, dancers will perform solos to eight stories.

The performance will be held on Sunday, September 14th beginning at 7 PM. It will be staged at the Public House on Page Hill Pavilion, and tickets are by suggested donation. For more information and to purchase tickets, please visit https://www.zeffy.com/en-US/ticketing/belonging-and-othering.

Prior to the performance of Belonging and Othering, on September 10th at 6 PM, the Arts Council of Tamworth will host a free film screening of the documentary Invisible Imprints, held at the Cook Memorial Library.

This feature-length documentary follows the dancers from beheard.world as they travel from Jackson, MS up the Great Migration Trail to Chicago, performing an original piece called Invisible Imprints of Racism. At each showing they facilitate talkbacks with audiences, exploring and confronting issues of race. As these dramatic experiences unfold on the tour, the film captures the performers’ own struggles with identity and race, shedding light on the deeper truths of racial divisions from diverse perspectives.

Funded in part by the New England States Touring program of the New England Foundation for the Arts, made possible with funding from the National Endowment for the Arts Regional Touring Program and the six New England state arts agencies.
