Bladed Edge Between is an immersive poetry and sound performance by Ruby Singh, created in collaboration with poet Hari Alluri and musician PIU. Rooted in diasporic memory, ecological resonance, and intergenerational healing, the work unfolds as a multilingual sonic archive of longing and belonging.
Structured through the emotional arc of Indian classical music ascending, descending, breaking open, and dissolving into silence, the performance merges spoken word, song, live sound, and projection into an embodied experience.
This is not a traditional reading but a living invocation, where poetry becomes vibration and memory becomes shared ritual.
All Saints. 7:30 p.m. (Doors at 7 p.m.)
$15-30 Sliding Scale (cash only!)
