Threshold: Kickstarter Campaign

The Lucky Penny is proud to present Threshold, a new work by Atlanta choreographer Blake Beckham, noted for her recent works American Muscle (Eyedrum, Emory University and Dance Truck at PICA's Time-Based Art Festival) and PLOT, a critically acclaimed production at The Goat Farm Arts Center, named Best Dance Performance of 2011 by Creative Loafing.

This summer, Beckham challenges a community of architects, engineers, paper scientists, sculptors and theater technicians to design and build a two-story home made entirely out of paper products. Sponsors so far include Idea Capital Atlanta and Possible Futures. As we seek further support from other cultural institutions and corporations, we ask YOU to pitch in a little. Your donation will go directly towards paying our artists. Thank you for your genuine support and enthusiasm for our work and the artists we believe in.

Idea: Threshold

Idea Capital has awarded Lucky Duo, Blake Beckham and Malina Rodriguez, a grant to support the creation of their upcoming performance work, Threshold. Premiering in late summer, the piece is designed for a house constructed out of cardboard, and examines the home as both a sacred and profane space. The Lucky Penny is currently recruiting architects, designers, and artist volunteers. Contact blake@theluckypenny.org for more information.
