"You laugh, you enjoy, all the while sensing that you're also seeing something authentic, something important that lurksunderneath politics and headlines." -Steven Winn, San Francisco Chronicle
Change has come in America. And nobody shows us the intimate details of a more perfect union than the Culture Clash trio with their out of the box comedic AND dramatic entertainment. For over two decades this ensemble of writer-actors have practiced the art of theatrical-social anthropology by digging deep into America's culture to formulate their outrageous brand of "performance collage." As in all of their memorable comedic sketches, the characters in AmeriCCa are adapted from real interviews with people from across the U.S. who live radically diverse lives. The troupe's signature use of satire, vaudeville, mime and spoken word dramatizes the voices of the socially invisible and the New Americans, offering a fresh examination of cultures in flux. From Cuban exiles and Haitian immigrants in Miami, to a Puerto Rican political activist in Manhattan, to commies and dot-commers rubbing elbows in San Francisco's Mission District, to expatriates in Tijuana and Ugandan cab drivers in San Diego, these are unforgettable characters who will leave you gasping, laughing and cheering. in the Lyceum Theatre at Horton Plaza
Free parking at the Horton Plaza parking garage for up to 6 hours! San Diego Repertory Theatre 79 Horton Plaza, San Diego, CA 92101 www.sdrep.org.
