SUMMARY:Left and Right\, or Being who/where you are - Performances
DESCRIPTION:Performance Dates & Registration\nMarch 13 – tickets and registration here \nPlease note: Participants will need Chrome and a laptop or desktop to be able to access the performance (no mobile or iPad access possible). For the best experience\, we also recommend the use of headphones throughout the performance. \nDescription\nIn this time of intense divisions\, a left partisan and a right partisan speaking with each other seems like an impossible conversation – or\, at least\, a conversation that is impossible to have meaningfully on certain so-called “hot-button” topics and complex realities\, such as the COVID-19 pandemic or immigration. \nThis devised\, interactive online multimedia performance stages scenes that feature such conversations … performed by both human actors and bots. The human and machinic actors play different characters that embody\, complicate\, and deconstruct different types of performative\, prescribed political identities on the left-right spectrum (approached with a US-focus but through a transnational lens). These political identities are shown to be not static or unalterable\, rather\, the result of relational\, performative processes that occur over time and with technology. Theatrically playing with(in) these processes\, Left and Right aims to call forth more capacious ways of being – and being political. \nPresented by Brown Arts Initiative. Free and open to the public. Registration required. \nCredits\nConcept & Directing: Ioana B. Jucan\nText: Patrick Elizalde\, Andra Jurj\, Marcela Mancino\, Fabiola Petri\, Ioana B.
