New York City
Ugo’s Last Dance is a haunting tale about three clowns, whose fame as political commentators under the previous regime, leads them–under a tyrannical usurper–to languish their days away in a jail cell, where the play is set. Faced with the looming specters of starvation and torture, there is little hope of salvation. Through performance, puppetry, and the live accompaniment of folk rock band Moore & Sons, Ugo’s Last Dance will transport you to a magical and sinister land, where memories and illusion intertwine, reality becomes fiction, and where every moment is a struggle to hold on to your humanity.
