In Preparation of War is dance theater influenced by culturally sanctioned violence associated with boxing, drill rap, ballet; and the rules of war. It is set in a consecrated place where warriors live, eat, and train. A drill master, 2 warriors, a commander, and a ghostly figure from battles past hold the 4 corners of the space. A darkly comic piece about what happens when violence runs amok. Content Awareness: There are "staged" fights, gunshot sounds, at least one "killing" and a wooden gun.
