Iphigenia… (a rave fable), by Caridad Svich @Center Ithaca

Incognita Presents Iphigenia…(a rave fable) in Downtown Storefront this March

“…a throbbing, daring multimedia freakout.” (Denver Post)

MEET THE PLAYWRIGHT: Caridad Svich will speak at CSMA at 7:30 Wed Mar 14 about her work as a playwright and Incognita will present scenes from IPHIGENIA.

The full title of this astonishing play by award-winning playwright Caridad Svich is “Iphigenia Crash Land Falls on the Neon Shell That Was Once Her Heart (a rave fable)”

As Svich describes her work, “This play hurls one of Greek tragedy’s most compelling sagas into a sleek netherworld of sex, drugs and trance music. Iphigenia is the daughter of a political celebrity who embraces sensuous excess with a transgendered glam rock star named Achilles in a desperate attempt to flee her inevitable fate.”

Incognita proudly collaborates with Cornell’s Teatrotaller and the Latino Civic Association to present the regional premiere of this play by one of our leading Latina playwrights.
