What Holds Heat Productions
What Holds Heat is a collaboration between Nic Adams and Cori Marquis. Our kinetic and experiential works of performance seek to extend the boundaries of theatre and expand its power for our audience. Our ensemble-based theatre prioritizes impressionistic storytelling, with subjects ranging from the intimate to the fantastical, while always being grounded in the complexity of human relationships.
