THRESH & HOLD is a book of poems re-coded into a collaborative ceremony of composed and improvisational music, dance, poetry, and short film.
“Exhausted of singing in an empire’s hopeful choir”, Dekine’s poems play with past, present, and future, all held within any moment, remembering the power of Black imagination for collective ancestral healing.
Join Marlanda Dekine for an evening-length, multimedia experience centered around their forthcoming full-length debut poetry collection, Thresh & Hold (Hub City Press, 2022).
With collaborative artists Victoria Lynn Awkward (Dance), Brittany J. Green (Composer), Mahkia Greene (Film), Zahili Gonzalez Zamora (Music), and Emily Bearce (Lights).
Thresh & Hold is co-sponsored by Boston Center for the Arts where Castle of our Skins is a Launchpad Resident. Supported, in part, from the Mass Cultural Council, a state agency, through a CIP Project grant; a grant from the Boston Cultural Council, administered by the Mayor’s Office of Arts and Culture; and the Fromm Music Foundation.
