La Femme Est Morte May 14, 2008

The Shalimar's smash hit 'La Femme est Morte or Why I Should Not F%!# My Son' returns to New York for eight performances at PS122. It is an adaptation of the Phaedra myth. Using found text, live music, frenetic dance, raw meat and eight wild performers writer/director Shoshona Currier delves deep into America's celebrity obsession. It's a savage send-up of a country hell bent on escapism even when all around it things are falling apart. Flash photography is encouraged.
