UCLA’s Center for the Art of Performance (CAP UCLA) presents Among Us — UCLA from Theater Director Marike Splint on Saturday, February 29, 2020, through Sunday, May 10, 2020, on UCLA’s campus. The guided performance begins in the Royce Hall vestibule. Tickets starting at $18 are available now at cap.ucla.edu, 310–825–2101 and the Royce Hall box office.
Audience members become active participants in this audio theater through the UCLA campus. The experience created by Splint invites each participant to actively observe their surroundings and explore the tension between our desire to belong and our desire to be free. The voice of Thomas Dudkiewicz, heard through provided headphones and audio devices, prompts the actions of the spectators and asks questions about community and belonging. The experience culminates in a game of choice and affiliation that gradually illuminates the hidden social structures that define us.
The creator, Splint, is a Dutch French-Tunisian director specializing in performance in public space. She has created shows in sites ranging from wide-open meadows to taxicabs, train stations and hotel rooms. She is fascinated by the sense of belonging, what it means to share a common space, and the relationship between people, place and identity.
