THE BATTLE
LIVE PERFORMANCE
Part Street Fighter, part Mad Max, and part Lady Gaga, THE BATTLE is a live electro-rock opera accompanied by dark and uncanny 2-D animations that offer a window into a post-disaster dreamscape set in an exterminist future ruled by a world-weary spirit desperate for redemption.
​
The story begins following the fall of the protagonist from a life of fame and fortune to a fate as a wandering beast, doomed to bear witness to the cold and bitter winter of the human race.
​
This extensive project, developed together with musician David Scheller, brings together original composition, live performance, video collage, travel photography, and genderqueer storytelling to bind live music with sci-fi theater in a club setting.
