Andy Warhol's 15: COLOR ME, WARHOL
COLOR ME, WARHOL is Raja Feather Kelly's interpretation of Andy Warhol's vision of the iconic musical A Chorus Line as Warhol would have imagined it. In this production, 15 dancers bring to life Warhol's ideas, philosophy and iconic visuals through Kelly's unique dance-theater style intended to be radical yet accessible. The production blurs the line between truth and illusion; sourcing TV and Movies, The Andy Warhol Diaries with confessions and journal entries from the performers.
