Leonora,

La maga y la maestra

Conceived, Created and Directed

by Stacy Klein

Inspired by the visual art, writings and life of British-born Mexican artist Leonora Carrington and her mentorship of a long line of male artists, this surreal performance unfolds an encounter between Leonora and Adán (everyman) and portrays the magic, mystery, and humanity found in Carrington’s work.

ART + LIVING CULTURE + ART JUSTICE =
DOUBLE EDGE THEATRE
an art / community / cultural collective


Our Vision is to prioritize imagination in times of creative, emotional, spiritual, and political uncertainty.

Our Mission is to pursue authenticity, interaction, identity with whomever is seeking creative, emotional, spiritual, and political clarity.

Our Art (performance / visual / multi-media) is grounded in a rigorous ensemble aesthetic unfolded in dream, imagery, metaphor, mystery, and symbolism.

Our Work (cultural / economic / organizational / personal / political) is created and sustained within an open, honest, meaningful, relevant shared experience. We call this ‘Living Culture.’

Our Dedication is to face isolation and erasure; to face despair and pain that can translate into personal incapacity and political paralysis. To uplift. We call this ‘Art Justice.’

Double Edge Theatre:
A Case Statement

Stacy Klein, DE’s Founder and Artistic Director, has been working with Baraka Sele, our long-time consultant, creating a Case Statement that articulates the Who, What, When, Where, How and Why of our past and our present as we approach our 40th anniversary.

We are thrilled to share with you an extract about Double Edge Theatre’s work from Catriona McAra’s newest book The Medium of Leonora Carrington: A feminist haunting in the contemporary arts (Manchester University Press, 2022). Thinking across contemporary art media, this book demonstrates how Carrington has posthumously become a medium in her own right, critically haunting the creative intellectuals who met or knew her. It explores the work of a remarkable variety of individuals and organizations, including the artists Lucy Skaer, Samantha Sweeting and Lynn Lu, the actress Tilda Swinton, the novelists Chloe Aridjis and Heidi Sopinka and the ensemble Double Edge Theatre.
