“[He is] to Beirut what the Wooster Group is to New York: a blend of avant-garde innovation, conceptual complexity and political urgency, all grounded in earthy humor.” —New York Times
In his US debut tour, Rabih Mroué illuminates the elusive nature of personal and national memory with Looking for a Missing Employee, a riveting and timely performance puzzle. Using video with multicamera live feeds, he brilliantly merges storytelling, historic detritus, and live sketch art. Is it truth or fiction? You decide as he sweeps you along in this tale that unearths the mutable realities of daily life in his homeland and the ever-increasing skepticism around Middle Eastern leadership. Mroué also presents his latest short piece, The Pixelated Revolution, a work-in-progress co-commissioned by the Walker, on Saturday, January 14, as part of Inside Out There.
