Salom\u00e9 is remembered for her dance of the seven veils. She danced for the court, she offered her body to her step-father and in return, she asked for the head of John the Baptist. Her story and her demand were vital to the fate of Jesus and the modern church.<\/p>\n<p>Throughout history, Salom\u00e9 has been shamed, blamed, and described as a deadly temptress. She has become a symbol for the dangers of female desire.<\/p>\n<p>In Gale Theatre Company\u2019s new production, Salom\u00e9\u2019s story begins after the death of John the Baptist. It starts when she has been left alone to grieve. On her own, Salom\u00e9 identifies herself and learns what it means to have agency in her own body. She reconciles the truth about her past, present, and future. Gale\u2019s production combines dance, acrobatics, and a huge bath tub filled to the brim with water to give Salom\u00e9 her voice back.<\/p>\n<p>Directed by Katherine Wilkinson<br \/>\nChoreographed by Earl Kim<br \/>\nStage Management by Lemons Clemons<br \/>\nPerformed by Gabriela Pedraza, Kriston Woodreaux, Tim Mateer, Megan Rabuse, David Benjamin, Austin Vaught<br \/>\nAssistant Directed by Jamie Goodman<br \/>\nMusic Composed by Shawn Jones<br \/>\nLighting Design by Rachel Atkinson<br \/>\nCostume Design by Talena Martinez<br \/>\nScenic Design by Ann Marie Gordon<br \/>\nTechnical Direction by Zac Crofford<br \/>\nProduction Managed by Sarah Loucks<br \/>\nMedia Design by Ra&#8217;chel Lowery, Brittaney Ortiz, Paul Costen, Katherine Wilkinson<br \/>\nDramaturgy by Abigail Lucas &#038; Samantha Bender<br \/>\nAdaptation by Lemons Clemons &#038; Katherine Wilkinson<\/p>\n<p>Gale Theatre Company is dedicated to presenting original physical theatre, training actors, and community collaboration.
