About the event
Inheritance: A Litany is a personal narrative, dance-opera, non-linear play, and comic drama. The interdisciplinary tour-de-force honors the parent-child relationship, its psychologies, and its histories—comedic, deeply intimate, and yet also universal. The text material is based on lists Ms. Brenner began making, noting rather profoundly how she had become them—and how we inherit not only parts of our parent’s physical, psychological, behavioral, emotional traits, but also their objects, belongings, even thoughts and ways of being in the world.
