Magnes by The Marsh Series
The Marsh Berkeley in association with The Magnes Collection of Jewish Art and Life presents from Australia
Cordelia, Mein Kind
By Deborah Leiser-Moore
Four performances only!
February 2-5, 2012, Thursday- Sunday
Inspired by Shakespear's King Lear, Cordelia, Mein Kind is a personal exploration of a present-day Cordelia-like character revealed through language, movement, image and film. The performance combines original interviews—between a contemporary Cordelia and her father, a Yiddish-speaking Holocaust survivor who lived in ‘exile’ in the Melbourne suburb of Bentleigh.
"deeply textured, multilayered and savagely poetical work” –Real Time Magazine
"a multi-stranded narrative that literally pulsates, like an exploded heart, with deep feeling and mystery" –Ari Roth (Theater J, Washington DC)
