Kelly Copper & Pavol Liska began their collaboration in 1997 and together founded Nature Theater of Oklahoma in 2006. The company is committed to “making the work they don’t know how to make,” an approach yielding new amalgams of opera, dance, film, and theater, combined with popular culture and humor.


Violet Spurlock is a poet living in the Bay Area, where she is a PhD student at the University of California, Berkeley. Her first full-length collection, In Lieu of Solutions, won the Futurepoem Other Futures Award. Other titles include Alloyed Bliss and VS VS VS.
