Laurie Anderson: Homeland
Laurie Anderson, described by The Boston Globe as the "reigning
performance artist of her time," returns to the Festival with her most
sophisticated production to date, 'Homeland,' a "concert poem" driven
by the political urgency of contemporary American culture. Weaving a
conceptual sonic tapestry through spoken word, music and technology,
Anderson, backed by a complement of top-notch New York musicians,
offers audiences an editorial narrative on the delivery of information
and control, the push and pull of freedom and fear, and today's
omnipresent context of war.
