“It’s hard to do justice to the freewheeling brilliance of Big Dance Theater.” —New York Times
Five sisters at a family reunion in 1970s Los Angeles set the stage for an ingenious theatrical work by Big Dance Theater’s director Annie-B Parson. Heightening perceptions of class, privilege, and the growing self-involvement of the new “me” generation, The Mood Room dazzles through a blend of film, movement, music, puzzles, and dry wit. This critique of how class and wealth have changed our relationship to citizenry features text by ’70s conceptual artist Guy de Cointet and a score by pop-electronic sound artist Holly Herndon.
