Bridget Leak (USA) will present her work on Rhapsodies on a National Tragedy, a theatrical motley of theater, improvisation, music, dance and monologue all entwined around a loose, evolving narrative structure.
Rhapsodies starts with the 2006 Alabama Church arsons and works its way out beyond the familiar story of maladjusted youths, unbridled hatred, unchecked racism, and examines aggressor, victim and community. It asks, ‘where is the line in the sand where actions become irreversible? What constitutes a victim? When do we forgive ourselves for failing to understand?’
Bridget’s residency is part of The Watermill Center’s partnership with Lincoln Center Theater Directors Lab. The work will be presented again at Lincoln Center Theatre in the spring of 2013.
