WHAT IS IT ABOUT?
A brand new translation of Dante's Divina Commedia, The Divine Reality Comedy consists of four parts: Paradise, in which the old human Born-to-Die gene is replaced by the brand new Born-to-Buy gene, Post-Paradise Horsemanship, Purgatory, in which the shadows of the indefinitely detained speak to you, Hell, the Guantanamo interrogation process in which an eight-inch papier maché population recites actual interrogation transcripts and then witnesses three cases of torture as demonstrated on three over-life size puppets. The show is performed by Peter Schumann and the Bread & Puppet Company, along with a large number of local volunteers, including members of the Second Line Social Aid & Pleasure Society Brass Band and their musical friends. Informal talk backs with the artists follows each performance.
