Online Interactive Theater Experience
FLIGHT by Anonymous Ensemble
Pregones/PRTT is proud to partner with Anonymous Ensemble to present FLIGHT on January 22, 2021.
With Flight, Anonymous Ensemble creates a new form of theatrical space that is live, interactive, and global in scope. Flight brings together performers and audiences in real space and from anywhere in the world in order to investigate expansive global issues and tiny revelatory moments in real time. Within a stylized visual and narrative framework, we visit people around the world, in their own environments, with their own worldviews and their own words. Carefully blending reality and fiction, Flight creates an experience that is both engaging and transformative. Flight is a performance, a community event, and a conversation. Anonymous Ensemble is excited to partner with Pregones/PRTT to bring you the work of El Zorzal in Santiago, Chile, El Colibrí in San Juan, Puerto Rico, El Gavilán in Lima, Perú, and The Bearded Headed Goose, in The Bronx, USA.
