The WaxFactory's Blind.ness, an exploration of the underbelly of love, begins performances at Performance Space 122 Oct. 12.
WaxFactory co-founder Erika Latta joins cast members Melody Bates, Gillian Chadsey and Breeda Wool in the multidisciplinary work that integrates audio-visual installation, dance and text. The production runs through Nov. 1.

Directed by Ivan Talijancic and co-written with Slovene playwright Simona Semenic, Blind.ness utilizes visual and musical elements from pop culture references – including songs by Garbage and P.J. Harvey – to expose the emotional nature of love through absence and yearning, while asking "What transpires when love becomes a four-letter word?"

Designing the production are Antonio Giacomin (video design), Minimart (scenic design) and Random Logic of Slovenia (original sound).

Tickets are available by phoning (212) 352-3101 or by visiting PS122.

PS 122 is located in Manhattan at 150 1st Avenue at East 9th Street.
