Performance Space 122 Presents The Team's ARCHITECTING
By: Gabrielle Sierra
Architecting is an exhilarating and wickedly funny saga that weaves through past and future to create a requiem for modern America. Gone With the Wind spills into a post-Katrina watering hole, as lives, eras and blueprints overlap horses in this musical, time-bending, multi-media epic rockets between reconstructions, real and imagined, of citizens and nations.
