The performance for museums has been developed by soprano Joanna Dudley with William Kentridge, who have worked together on numerous productions by Kentridge for the stage. The opposite of a classic guided tour, this is a moment of pure poetic pleasure that puts artworks against interpretation as part of a theatrical mise-ensc.ne.
Joanna Dudley (b. 1971, London) works internationally as a director, performer and singer creating performance, choreography and installation. Dudley has collaborated with the visual artist William Kentridge for the past seven years as a co-creator, singer and performer. Her performances have been presented at Tate Modern, London (2018); Louisiana Museum, Copenhagen; Fondation Louis Vuitton, Paris (2017) and Gropius Bau, Berlin (2016). She has also performed at the Philharmonie de Paris (2018); the Dutch National Opera (2017); English National Opera (2016); the Metropolitan Opera, New York (2015) and Carnegie Hall, New York (2014). Joanna Dudley lives and works in Berlin.
