In Sō’s latest evening-length show, “Who Turns Out the Light?”, the ensemble provides a theatrical performance of songs by Caroline Shaw and Sō Percussion, featuring Ringdown. Spanning years of working together across several albums, this event is a band-generated theatrical experience, featuring staging and design by Director Mark DeChiazza. The musicians gradually place lights and reveal novel instruments as the show builds from a lone spotlight on Shaw to the ecstatic full ensemble performing thrilling up-tempo songs like “Sing On” and “To the Sky,” as films by Sō Percussion member Jason Treuting ’99E splash across canvases throughout the stage. This production melds DIY design with dazzling original songs, to sensational effect.
