Fourth in a series of works chronicling LGBTQ ancestors, Rainbow Logic celebrates the life and legacy of dancer, choreographer, children's book author and illustrator Remy Charlip.
Charlip's work defies easy categorization. He helped found The Merce Cunningham Dance Company and collaborated with many groundbreaking artists of his day, including John Cage, Lou Harrison, and Robert Rauschenberg among others. He designed costumes and choreography for The Judson Church Dance Theater and both wrote and illustrated over 30 children's books. He is also remembered for developing his own unique method of choreography called "Air Mail Dances," in which he would illustrate choreography to specific pieces of music and mail them to dancers around the world. Despite his impact in the world of contemporary art, winning two Obie Awards, and being named a National Treasure by the Library of Congress, his legacy is often lost in the shadows of his more celebrated peers.
Weaving live action, dance, puppetry, video and music, Rainbow Logic celebrates Charlip's exceptional life.
Performing the role of Charlip are Colin Creveling, as the artist as a young man, and Paul Loper as the older. Emily Butterfly joins them as a third actor, in various roles, and as lead puppeteer.
