Experience the splendor of The Met Cloisters with a newly commissioned, site-specific immersive performance by duo Gerard & Kelly. For the first installation of a multipart project, the duo brings narrative, choreography, and critical inquiry into dialogue with with the exhibition Spectrum of Desire: Love, Sex, and Gender in the Middle Ages and activates the unique architecture of The Met Cloisters through music and movement, featuring vocal ensemble The New Consort. Saints at a Disco explores the disco as a sanctuary—a place not only of mourning and loss, especially in the wake of the AIDS epidemic, but also of cultural transmission and spiritual transcendence.
