WHAT IS IT ABOUT?
One man is on a collision course with his future, sprinting toward the most important moment of his life. But will he be ready? How can a man prepare to meet his first child? Visually stunning and extraordinarily athletic, barely pausing for breath, The Race chronicles a man trying to reconnect his feelings and truly live. Surfing from image to image on a swell of physical energy, The Race is an exhilarating and affirming theatrical experience like no other. With a whirl of masterful movement, vivid color and powerful music, images appear like magic, people fly, and the routine of one man's life transforms into something beautiful. Amit Lahav and Al Nedjari direct.
Part of the 2006 Brits Off Broadway series.
