In A Dream Inside Another actors and dancers come together to stretch the form of North American Theater by infusing it with the magic realism of Latin American literature. Choreographer Della Davidson of Sideshow Physical Theatre at UC Davis, and Artistic Director John Flax of Theater Grottesco, Santa Fe, NM, have created an original dance/theater production that simultaneously tells three of Isabel Allende’s “Stories of Eva Luna”. Dark and unforgiving, sweet and exquisitely touching, the stories’ common themes clutch at the heart, lift the soul and bring tears for what we have and what we have lost. Supported by a major grant from The Rockefeller Multi-Arts Production Fund.
