Synopsis: | This show is part of BAM's Next Wave Festival; this is from BAM: "The Builders Association returns to BAM with Continuous City, a multimedia theater work that investigates how 'networking' technology both encourages and hinders human interaction, honest communication, and heartfelt connections. Utilizing The Builders' signature cinematic stagecraft, this New York premiere tells the story of a traveling father and his young daughter at home, tethered and transformed by speed, hypermodernity, and failing cell phones. These characters-along with a maniacal Internet mogul exploiting the developing world and a hilarious nanny desperate to be a star-move through a vast cityscape made up of fragments from many different locales-some real, some virtual, some distant, and some drawn from the very city in which each performance is staged. Each location morphs into the next as they become one continuous city." | |||||
