Mandie Rapoza Presents FRAGMENTS, a Live Audio Story

"Let's not leave each other unknown..."

Through the fog of Alzheimer's, Austrian-born Herta wrestles with the foundational moments of her past, including a childhood involvement with the Hitler Youth. Through interactions with her caregiver, her estranged daughter and her own fractured memories, Herta is forced to confront deep-held regrets and hard truths left unspoken. Fragments centers on one fundamental question: "How much of ourselves must give to the ones we love?"

Fragments premiered at Dixon Place to a sold-out audience in the summer of 2019. Originally produced as a dance/theater fusion piece, it has been adapted to be presented in our current, deeply changed, Covid-19 world. Now, rather than a traditional narrative, it has been reimagined as a live audio installation, supplemented with one live actor and projected video content. Audience will get to experience Fragments in a brand new, deeply intimate way, with the soundscape and original musical score serving as the primary design element.
