  Deep Blue Sea will explore the relationship of aloneness as it pertains to or contrasts to group identity. The work is divided into three sections: a solo for Jones, which evolves to include the Bill T. Jones/Arnie Zane Company, that further expands into a larger community. The community is sourced locally at each venue and will essentially create site-specificness to each performance. The formal grouping is a meditation on the nature of community building in a confusing era. The work explores the manipulation of spoken word and singing as part of an ever-present sound score combined with Elizabeth Diller’s design of the physical space, to be transformed to evoke an infinite existence.
