- MCA Live:
Lisa Kaplan and Matthew Duvall–- Long A man sits behind a bass drum, which leans into his lap as he plays it gently with his hands. He looks toward a woman seated to his right and playing a miniature piano-like instrument. They are spot-lit on a dark stage.
- MCA Live:
Petits Artéfacts–- Long A video still of a white man in early middle age is playing a cello without a bow. He is seated on a chair in front of a black music stand. The casually dressed man is focused on the music in front of him. To his right, a laptop and video monitor is sitting on a table with the monitor screen facing the viewer. And additional monitor screen is facing forward at the man's feet. Many black cords are hanging from the monitors onto and across the wooden floor of the otherwise bare room.
- Sat/Sun Sold OutDorrance Dance
ETM: Double Down–- Long A male and female performer, clad in black, appear on the MCA Stage. Both dancers, their arms extended, tap on top of black platforms. In between them, a man wearing suspenders plays guitar while another man gazes into the distance. All four appear in front of a solid black curtain.
