Alexis Roblan and The Tank Present
SAMUEL
AN AUDIO / VISUAL EXPERIENCE
July 22 – August 14, 2021

Four adult sisters can’t agree on anything.

Did mom make sweet potatoes with marshmallows or thyme?

What did Grandma’s face look like?

Didn’t we have a brother once?

Wasn’t his name Samuel?

SAMUEL – a new audio-visual experience for the theatre – invites audience members to listen to audio scenes on their own devices as they explore an unnerving visual world of collective loss, existential fear, and the everyday trauma of family relationships. Fashioned after a self-guided audio museum tour, each observer will allow the immersive soundscape in their ears to guide their journey as the sisters struggle to maintain their connections to themselves, each other, and an ever-shifting sense of reality.
