Same As Sister (S.A.S.) will be sharing early research and ideas from their HARP-commissioned project, Upstairs, In Our Bedroom, as part of HERE’s Resident Artist Workshops (RAW) Series. The program will also include a post-show talkbalk with S.A.S. co-directors and choreographers, Hilary Brown-Istrefi and Briana Brown-Tipley.

Upstairs, In Our Bedroom is an autobiographical performance that radically reimagines Same As Sister’s experiences as female identical twins of color next to those of outsider authors, June & Jennifer Gibbons (a.k.a. The Silent Twins). Utilizing dance, text, VR technology, and puppetry, they will reveal the powerful and painful intersections between twinship, blackness, madness, and art-making.
