Directed by John Moletress
Featuring Jocelyn Kuritsky
January 28–31, 2016
Sanctuary (American Psalm) is an epic poem for the stage by Obie-Award winning playwright Caridad Svich that explores how we are born, how we live, and how we come to terms with and find spaces of sanctuary in our lives, whether you are a migrant, ghost, worker, child, elder or the voice of the earth itself. Call it the cry of the 1 percent, call it a shout-lullaby, Sanctuary is offered as a healing balm for performance during these troubled times. This work-in-progress presentation of the piece will feature the collaboration of director/performer John Moletress of D.C.-based ensemble force/collision and New York-based actor Jocelyn Kuritsky.
