| Synopsis: | For this inquiry into the nature of democracy and the value of "political theater," theatre auteur Levine has eliminated the 'audience' and gathered everyone around a seminar table peppered with cast members who may, or may not, be acting. The topic of this seminar is Simone Weil's unfinished 1943 play Venise Sauvée, an allegory of democracy and its overthrow, presented on the 100th anniversary of Weil's birth. What do we want theater to do? Venice Saved: A Seminar is a groundbreaking, gleefully irreverent discussion of this question in 21st century America. By asking 'How would Weil's play be staged today?,' it touches on a range of topics on the minds of artists and audiences in 2009: performance art, torture, gift bags, Blasted, outsourcing, anorexia, Israel, the TCG, Rachel Corrie, Blackwater, free beer, Iraq, the financial crisis, Barack Obama, and why TV, contemporary art, and and movies kick theater's ass every time. On the 100th anniversary of Simone Weil's birth, this unique interactive event takes her unfinished play and asks American Theater, 'What were you possibly thinking? - press release | |||||
