Nothings Happening: A Black Mountain College Project celebrates and pays homage to the tiny school in the mountains of North Carolina that in 24 years became one of the most influential endeavors in the history of American culture. John Cages Lecture On Nothing (1959) forms the core to this reimagining of the Happening as a theatrical event, created and performed by UNCA students, working in collaboration with Leon Ingulsrud (SITI Company). Rather than looking back, the performance explores how the past gives us a foundation to move forward into the 21st-century.
