Directed by Tom Leabhart.CMC Athenaeum - November 29 at 6:45pm Pitzer College Broad Center - December 7 & 8 at 8pm Seaver Theatre Large studio - December 10-12 at 8pmIn the United States, as almost everyone or their ancestors came here seeking a new life, a new start in a new world, we are almost an entire nation of immigrants. Many broke the borders of what John Donne calls "earth's imagined corners" to assert its innate roundness, and their innate wholeness: their right to travel over earth searching for home. Student actors interview subjects, posing questions about physical and mental border crossing, and using documentary theatre techniques (sometimes known as "verbatim theatre") devised by Anna Deavere Smith, create a performance based on these interviews.
