March 11-14, 2010
The Closest Farthest Away
Byron Carlyle Theater, Miami Beach
The Closest Farthest Away (La Extranable Lejania) is the first of its kind - a multi-media theater piece created by filmmakers, theater artists, and musicians from the US and Cuba. They use cinema and live performance to cross the impossible boundaries that keep the US and Cuba apart. All Cuban characters and locations are projected via a multi-channel video installation. An American actor interacts with the projections from Cuba creating a dramatic metaphor for the impossibility of exchange between our two countries. Video is of necessity because the dialogue between our two countries is always mediated: Bodies cannot legally move between borders, nor can they share live space with each other. Tapping into the physical presence of live performance and the defiance of space and time that is cinema, an impossible world is created - one in which Cubans and Americans exist together on the same stage.
