E+L Performance
E&L Performance is a creative collective led by Erin Amlicke & Lillian White. Blending movement, text, and visual design, they create unique, portable performances and surreal interventions in public spaces. Together, Erin & Lillian seek to ignite imagination and connection through embodied experiences in an increasingly digital world. Their journey has led them to in-depth research and collaboration in Chile and Peru; their ongoing partnerships in Lima remain a vital part of their creative practice, bilingual performance, and political inquiry. Their work has been seen at Dixon Place, The Assembly’s Deceleration Lab/Salon, Burning Coal Theatre (NC) and Philadelphia’s Cannonball Festival, as well as in El Galpón Espacio and the Museum of Memory, Tolerance & Social Inclusion in Lima.

Artistic Residency in Lima, April-May 2024
Erin and Lillian are teaming up for a second residency in the capital city of Peru, where Lillian is based. We will focus on two projects: La Frontera Flotante, an evening of short, interconnected performance works created with local artists, and our adaptation of G.K. Chesterton’s The Man Who Was Thursday.
This builds on our first residency in Lima (fall of ‘22), when we trained with the Grupo Cultural Yuyachkani, and premiered Lillian’s solo show Mente de pollo, co-created and directed by Ricardo Delgado.
