“Sontag: Reborn” Explores The Duality of Private Life
UWire: On Oct. 2, The Center for the Arts welcomed The Builders Association for a two night performance of “Sontag: Reborn,” directed by Marianne Weems. Founded in 1994, The Builders Association is a New York-based performance and media company, using innovative ways to implement digital media on stage and create unique performances.
This show seems very interesting, especially after working on Bliss. Bliss was the first show I've seen that really used and abused media to a whole new level, so this show seems to go even further with that, making many social commentaries on the way people in society live life. I really like the concept of a one-man show about someone else's life, because through interviews of course, you get to see the disparity between the first hand account and the artist's perception of these events.
