On the occasion of We Don’t Live Here Anymore by Tarren Johnson & Joel Cocks at New Theater Hollywood, Los Angeles
We Don’t Live Here Anymore
Tarren Johnson
A fragmented reflection on movement, absence, and the unraveling of identity within the shifting landscapes of departure and return. Tarren Johnson explores the tension between private longing and public expression, where moments of love and vulnerability emerge in transient encounters.
Tarren Johnson grew up in North County San Diego, where she began dancing and writings a child. She continued her studies at CalArts in Los Angeles before moving to Europe, where she built a decade-long career in the performing arts. Her debut book of poetry, We Don’t Live Here Anymore, also serves as the foundation for the stage work of the same title.

We Don’t Live Here Anymore
Tarren Johnson
Une réflexion fragmentée sur le mouvement, l’absence, et l’effilochage d’identité dans les paysages changeants des départs et des retours. Tarren Johnson explore la tension entre le désir privé et l’expression publique, où moments d’amour et de vulnérabilité émergent lors de rencontres transitoires.
Tarren Johnson a grandi dans le comté nord de San Diego, où elle a commencé à danser et à écrire lorsqu’elle était enfant. Elle a poursuivi ses études à CalArts, à Los Angeles, avant de s’installer en Europe, où elle a mené une carrière dans les arts du spectacle. Son premier recueil de poèmes, We Don’t Live Here Anymore, sert également de base à l’œuvre théâtrale du même titre.
