One of three short pieces presented during An Evening of Shorts, with Lucien and Ten Sentences: On the Life of Robert Walser.

 

Sung in Yiddish

A solo performance that weaves together live vocals, recorded piano arrangements of Jewish and Anglo-American folk songs, recorded voices layered into a choir, handmade books, paper-puppets and crankie scrolls manipulated on stage. A live camera and projector magnify the small books and subtle movements into wall-sized projections, creating a show that is both intimate and immersive.
