.jpg "Spain Arts & Culture Presents OF GODS AND MEN")
This experimental theatre performance explores the relationship between the divine and the human present in the works of some Spanish writers.
To celebrate the 40th anniversary of the Baltimore School for the Arts, its theatre experimental lab presents a new performance using translated extracts by Spanish authors such as San Juan de la Cruz, Calderón de la Barca, Miguel de Unamuno, Santa Teresa and Irma Correa. Under the direction of Luz Nicolás, his senior students aged 16 to 18 will offer a journey into Spanish literature from the 16th century to our days.
More than a theatre play, Of Gods and Men is an experimental mise-en-scène conceived as a work in progress, an opportunity for these young performers to showcase their own creations of poems, choreographies, space and sound creation, and projection.
