Courage II
A theater piece that explores the theme of urban violence in a country without a declared war, but whose citizens are submerged in the paranoia generated by the security industry. This industry conceals the repressed memory of a militarized nation, involved in multiple wars financed by an arms market. The piece explores our own violence within this global context.
