Current:
A merged-media performance piece entitled:
DONA SANGRE
"Dona Sangre"...the
story of a woman shipwrecked between two cultures.
Dona Sangre (Give Blood) is a story of
seduction, betrayal, slight of hand,
and cultural ambiguity. Greenberg unravels the fall of "Grace," a
Caucasian
orphan raised by a Mexican maid on a Santa Barbara ranch in the
50's. Shipwrecked
off the coast of Baja, Grace survives by adopting a brown face and
joining a
group of nomadic female rancheras. Dona Sangre explores living with
a
fractured cultural identity through the voice of Grace in this
merged-media epic poem,
set in 20th century Baja.
Dona Sangre, steaming with all the passion, poetry, melodrama and
violence of
a post-modern morality play, alternates between text, traditional
Spanish
songs (sung acapella) and movement within a cabaret format.
Projective media
including video, marionettes, ventriloquism and masks are also woven
into a lush
and magical narrative.
Dona Sangre is adapted from a novel also written by Aimee Greenberg.
