JULIA as Harriet
By Liza Birkenmeier
Directed by Lucy Gram
It’s 1983, the evening before Dr. Sally Ride’s historic space flight. Hundreds of miles from the launch, a group of women with passionate opinions and no opportunities sit on a sweltering St. Louis rooftop watching life pass them by. Their uncharted desires bump up against American norms of sex and power in this intimate snapshot of queer anti-heroines.
JULIA as Young Girl
By Gao Xinjian
Translated by Gilbert C. Fong
Directed by Michael Samuel Kaplan
McCarroll Studio Theatre
An individual pitted against the crowd. The yearnings of a dissident. A phantasmagoric journey through the underworld. Join us for this spectacle of music, movement and soaring text, as we search for the other shore – that place we have always known, longed for, dreamt of, but still not found.
In the summer of 2020, Julia Zoratto had enjoyed an apprenticeship with the New York City-based Daniel Gwirtzman Dance Company. Through remote and on-site residency work in Upstate New York, Dance With Us, a digital educational dance platform, was developed and launched in the summer of 2021. The interactive platform features an archive of the Company’s dances and dance films, and is designed to teach viewers ways to view dance with comfort. Julia is featured as a dancer in The Fantasyland Project, Dollhouse, Willow, and Parade.
JULIA as Woman of Troy

Translation by Ellen McLaughlin
Directed by Dean Robinson
