TICKETS: $10-$35
The Lorraine Boccardo Theater
This new, one-of-a-kind, immersive experience comes from the mind of New York-based theater/technology pioneer Andrew Schneider. N O W I S W H E N W E A R E (the stars) draws on inspirations as broad as seeing the Milky Way for the first time to installations such as Yayoi Kusama’s Infinity Mirror Room and Random International’s Rain Room.
Moving beyond an immersive gallery experience, the stars’ unseen narrator guides each visitor through a theatrical cosmos of their own individual journey. Nearly 5,000 reactive points of light and a 496-channel sound system envelop each audience member. The Stars invites viewers to become active explorers – as they discover the traces of themselves in light, the universe, and those who have been here before us.
This is a non-seated, interactive environment filling the entirety of the Center’s black box theater. Audience members are free to move around the space, and are encouraged to wear comfortable shoes. Special accommodations are available for those who cannot stand or walk without assistance. Recommended for ages 16 and older.
Development of NOWISWHENWEARE was made possible with support from The Brown Arts Institute, The Simons Foundation and Science Sandbox, The Onassis Foundation, The Sundance Institute Interdisciplinary Program, and Eliko Industries. This project was produced with Los Angeles Performance Practice / performancepractice.org
GUIDED PERFORMANCE: $35 general admission / $10 students
A one-hour long crafted experience, for up to 8 audience members at a time. This theatrical experience features a beginning, middle and end, all guided by an unseen narrator.
