LOCATION:Neptune Theatre\, 1303 NE 45th St\, Seattle\, WA 98105\, USA
DESCRIPTION:STG Presents               Perfume Genius & Kate Wallich       
        "The Lesson"       Friday\, Apr. 9\, 2027 The 5th Avenue TheatreDoo
 rs at 7pmShow at 8pmReserved seating\, all ages                  Get Ticke
 ts         Perfume Genius (Mike Hadreas) and choreographer Kate Wallich re
 turn to the stage with a new collaboration. Combining Perfume Genius’ ex
 perimental pop with Wallich’s choreographic lens\, The Lesson is a raw\,
  uncompromising performance work inspired by The Piano Teacher\, the notor
 ious novel by Elfriede Jelinek\, famously adapted by Michael Haneke. The L
 esson examines what happens when desire has nowhere to go\, and what we’
 re rehearsing when we practice “good behavior”. The work moves through
  repression\, longing\, authority\, and submission in unstable scenes wher
 e roles shift\, and the unsaid becomes manically physical. Longtime admire
 rs know that Perfume Genius (Mike Hadreas) has spoken about his love of Th
 e Piano Teacher. Its intense\, clinical bleakness and its capacity to be b
 oth unsettlingly comic and tragic\, qualities that echo through the landsc
 ape of The Lesson. Following their acclaimed 2019 performance collaboratio
 n The Sun Still Burns Here\, Hadreas reunites with Wallich alongside his h
 usband and musical partner Alan Wyffels and longtime collaborator Tate Jus
 tus.  Kate Wallich - Director\, Choreographer\, Performer Mike Hadreas - D
