In Arch, two performers build a breathtaking, freestanding structure out of concrete and ice blocks, accompanied by a continuous musical vigil. Audiences witness the building of the arch over a flame and then experience its deterioration and eventual fall. A riveting, poetic exploration of humans and materials, Arch speaks to the beauty and fragility of our global systems.For the Flynn’s first time ever production on a mountain, this USA premiere features a volunteer chorus, consisting of local Vermonters, that unites voices from seasoned singers to enthusiastic beginners, coming together to weave captivating harmonies. In a testament to the Flynn’s commitment to free, accessible art, the Flynn ensures this unforgettable performance is open to all, at no cost, inviting everyone to gather in the magic of this unique and breathtaking event.

About Verity Standen
Verity Standen's projects take a range of forms—concerts, theatre pieces, films, installations, community events—but they always start with the voice. Much of Verity’s work explores the relationship between music and intimacy: She has woven singers around and amongst audiences (Undersong), embraced audience members (HUG), created concerts for one person at a time (Symphony), and built installations that celebrate the up-close details of different people’s voices (polyphony). Verity has created bespoke performances for castles and cafes, hospital wards and the streets. Alongside these shows, she has always run community choirs, and loves gathering people together to sing.
