“Invariably unique, FLASHPOINT stimulates audiences to transcend the expected.” A text-and-jazz performance ensemble based in New York City, FLASH POINT interweaves artists’ distinctive voices, rhythms, and characters to create a collaborative, interactive literary and musical experience. Flash fiction, micro memoir, prose poems, hybrid texts unfold in real time alongside the harmonies, melodies, cross-rhythms and moods of live jazz in a multidisciplinary call-and-response. Inspired by the synchronicities, spontaneities, convergences and divergences of jazz form, FLASH POINT performances cross genres, provoke tradition, and explore the territories ahead.
