Play/Pause
 is an indie-rock-fueled evening of postmodern dance-theater, coupling Susan Marshall's intimate, structured choreography with the seductiveness of pop culture to explore our complex relationship to the media we consume. 

Set to a commissioned score by Pulitzer Prize recipient David Lang, performed live by members of the electric guitar quartet Dither and Mantra Percussion.

Stop
is a virtual companion piece to Susan Marshall & Company's new dance performance Play/Pause.

Stop references the dance moves and sleek production value of popular music videos, but introduces abstraction by adding choreographic complexity, and stripping away context to make the dancers' movements the primary element.
