Our National Museum of the Unforeseen Tragedy by Renee Calarco: The Groundbreaking
It's 2027. The United States is still recovering from a devastating, yet oddly familiar event that nobody saw coming. Out of the ashes of the tragedy rises a memorial museum--The Museum of the Unforeseen--dedicated to preserving the memories of the day when everything changed.
Renee Calarco's Our National Museum of the Unforeseen Tragedy is an immersive theater piece that memorializes and explains "The American Spring," a series of national uprisings and protests that were figuratively--and literally--ignited by a Christian separatist suicide bomber who blew himself up on the National Mall on April 14, 2017--Good Friday. Part performance piece, part exhibit, Museum asks us to consider the politics of memory and national identity. Our Groundbreaking Ceremony will offer a glimpse into MUSEUM, including a tour of the museum, a reading, and a reception. Join us!
The cast of Museum includes Elliott Bales, Lolita Clayton, Maboud Ebrahimzadeh*, Jonathan Feuer*, Stan Kang, Elizabeth Kitsos-Kang*, Hyla Matthews*, Nate Shelton, and Yasmin Tuazon. *member, Actors Equity Association
The creative team includes Paul Douglas Michnewicz, director; Kristy Simmons, videographer and visual artist; Jacy Barber, props designer; Shira Hereld, stage manager; Rich Ching, production manager; and Austin Byrd, technical director.
