Eclipse (2022) by Culture Mill co-directors Elizéon and Tommy Noonan will be restaged and presented by the work’s commissioner Carolina Performing Arts. Performances of Eclipse at the CURRENT ArtSpace in Chapel Hill in March and April 2026 will be shared as part of Culture Mill’s Southern Futures Assembly, a celebration of works, practices, and collaborations created during their five-year residency with the Southern Futures at CPA initiative. In addition to performances of Eclipse, Culture Mill will curate programming including Well (2023), created in collaboration with a UNC Social Geography course, a lecture presenting Bricks as Memory, a forthcoming chapter in Critical University Studies and Performance (Vanderbilt University Press), and restorative circle practices. Key collaborators include poet CJ Suitt, dancers Otto Nelson and Jasmine Powell, poet Dr. Cortland Gilliam, and professor Dr. Betsy Olson.
