Bill T. Jones\/Arnie Zane Company’s<\/a><\/strong> latest work WHAT PROBLEM?<\/a><\/strong> provokes the tension between belonging to a community and feelings of isolation that many feel during these divisive political times.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Adapted for proscenium stages from the massive work, Deep Blue Sea (2020)<\/strong>, Jones conceived of this highly personal work in pursuit of the elusive “we” including a cast of local community members, a deconstructed text from Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s “I Have a Dream”<\/strong><\/em> speech and Herman Melville’s Moby Dick.<\/strong> Jones and the company develop individual content with local community members in each of the touring locations making each performance specific to its host city.<\/p>\n

The work examines the condition of loneliness in the individual experienced alone and within a community. It explores the need for community and the notion of collective redemption.<\/strong><\/p>\n
