MAINSTAGE SHOW // Genres: Supernatural/Paranormal, Psychological Horror, Gothic // Rating: PG13

A bouquet of crumpled lilies, rough grooves carved into a weathered butcher block, dolls veiled in cobwebs - all portraits illuminating the worn, forgotten objects that once showcased meaning, purpose, and passions of the living. Like pearls on string, Still, Life threads together lonesome vignettes within the remnants of a decaying home where the dread, morbidity, and viscera of life in a feminine identity are examined through ghostly storytelling.

Basement Stair Collective is Claire Elizabeth Aldridge, Kora Link, Rachel Lindsey Routh, and Becca Wirta. We create immersive new works through a collaborative, design-forward process, delving into the dark corners of the human experience to shed light on the spaces between grief and joy, the flesh and the soul, and the personal and the political. We are the child running up the stairs, and the monster chasing after them.

Kora Link: Director, co-creator
