On Thursday through Saturday, September 16—18, The Kitchen will present the New York premiere of Baggage Allowance, new work from composer, performer and media artist Pamela Z. Known for her signature experimental music-theater pieces, Z presents a solo performance for voice, electronics and interactive video that considers baggage in all its literal and metaphorical permutations. The performances will take place at 8:00 P.M. at The Kitchen (512 West 19th Street). Tickets are $15.

Baggage Allowance was developed as three interconnected components—a large-scale solo multi-media performance, a gallery installation, and a soon-to-come interactive web portal—with shared content and materials. The Kitchen is presenting the performance, in which Z, who is known for innovative sampling technologies and live electronic processing with operatic bel canto and extended vocal techniques, manipulates layers of visual and sonic material through various custom controls and devices live on stage.
