Inspired by the dialog of artistic permission and restraint utilized in Lars von Trier’s The Five Obstructions, Thomas, musical collaborator Christopher Lancaster, and costumer Joanna Seitz experiment with control and authorship as each places deliberate roadblocks to the other’s creative process. This new trio, which is derived from Von Trier’s exploration of mentor Jorgen Leth’s film “The Perfect Human” was made for performers Ted Johnson, Julia Burr, and Karl Rogers- three experienced performers all of whom happen to be taller than 6 feet.
