Black Tower
Presented by VORTEX and Ethos

Black Tower has commandeered The Yard at The VORTEX. Ethos, Austin’s premiere avant-garde performance troupe, invites spectators into their unique performance installation environment to view different chambers in the Black Tower.

Black Tower is like at an esoteric Historical Museum in-motion. Spectators may come to view Black Tower at any time from 8:30-10:30 pm, Thursday-Sunday. Journey through the chambers of Zeus and Athena in the Feast of a Divine Eye, Apollo and Dionysus in the Surgery of Ecstasy, Ares and Aphrodite in the Web of Muscle, and The Pythia (Oracle at Delphi), Theseus, and The Minotaur in the Empire of Surveillance.

Nudity. Beware the Minotaur.

Featuring:
Joe McDonald, Wendy Goodwin, Todd Essary, Eryn Gettys, Stewart Johnson, Melinda Wallace, Jo Beth Henderson, Matthew Patterson, & Content Love Knowles

Concept Director & Composition by Chad Salvata
Lighting Design by Jason Amato
Installation by Ann Marie Gordon
Costume Design by Kari Perkins

Ethos is funded in part by the City of Austin under the auspices of the Austin Arts Commission and by the Texas Commission on the Arts.
