More About "Here Lies the Truth"... Li Chiao-Ping Dance will be hosting an online event on Thursday, April 1 at 7:00pm CST. "Here Lies the Truth" takes on one of today's sticky topics--Truth. Through real facts, fiction, hyperbole, absurdity, and raw dance/physical theater, we aim to complicate the simplistic and simplify the complex through multiple lenses. “Here Lies the Truth” is created in this momentous time to explore truth and lies and how these permeate our inner landscapes and built environment. When information being consumed is not always trustworthy, how can that affect our ability to believe our own truths? April 1st's performance will feature part i (premiered August 15, 2020) and part ii (premiere April 1, 2021).
