If you’re looking for some Easter-appropriate wacky experimental live video performance art theater this weekend, then go see SOS – now showing at downtown LA’s Redcat Theater (part of the Disney Concert Hall Complex).
The New York based art ensemble, the “Big Art Group,” is performing the West Coast premiere of its new show, SOS through this weekend only. From the Redcat’s description:
SOS, employs nine performers, two musicians, a half-dozen projection surfaces and 22 live-edit cameras to mix the worlds of surveillance, cinema and live performance. Perfectly timed for Easter weekend, the production confronts themes of rebirth, sacrifice and ritual in a supersaturated, hyper-acquisitive society.”
Some French magazine had this to say: “The theatre of images for the new century is born: rapid, without concessions, violent and consuming itself at 100 miles an hour.”
I don’t know about you but this sounds like my kind of Easter pageantry!
