IN PERSON EVENT at The Chocolate Factory Theater, 38-33 24th Street, LIC. Proof of vaccination is required.
Co-commissioned with The Chocolate Factory Theater and PICA.
PURO TEATRO: A Spell For Utopia furthers luciana achugar’s mission of making work as a practice of constructing a new theater – a utopian theater – as a practice of growing a collective utopian uncivilized body with the audience. It asks our bodies directly, intimately and collectively: what do we need now, and what can carry us through and give us hope? PURO TEATRO: A Spell For Utopia considers the possibility of the theater inherent in the intimacy of our own experience within the spaces of our bodies, our homes and our communities. A theater without theater. An embodying spell. An intimate incantation for our dystopian reality.
Conceived and Directed by luciana achugar. Created and Performed by luciana achugar, Molly Lieber, Antonio Ramos and Sarah White-Ayón.
