In her new creation, Liz Kinoshita reaches into her mechanisms of the musical research for this performance to focus on one particular mechanism, the ’11 o’clock number’. Traditionally found in musicals as the second to last number wherein a protagonist makes a pivotal realisation through a soliloquy-like address, the 11 o’clock number generally has plenty of emotion, conviction, drive and heart.

Historically it can be a show-stopper or a melancholic reflective moment. Liz has an interest in how we conduct ourselves, and what power there is in listening to and observing each other’s methods for dealing with today’s quandaries… Do we pray, do we indulge, do we lash out, do we acquiesce? The title "11 O’clock" lends itself to the conation of the 11th hour, of impending catastrophe, of an immediacy and directness, to be delivered on stage. Némo Flouret, Irene Occhiato, and Liz Kinoshita dance, sing originally composed lyrics, and play trumpet through this hour-long performance, with music from Belgian trumpet player Bart Maris, among others. As always Liz strives to make performance in which the audience feels addressed and energized. "11 O’clock" aims to come face to face with our truths through dance, song and direct rhetoric.
