Program Note

why I can’t come to the phone…
Inspired by the individual cast members' personal stories and life experiences, why I can’t come to the phone… explores the spectrum of complex human emotions. The work is set to various works by Philip Glass which are reflective of his collaborations across art forms, specifically with writer Constance DeJong and theater group Mabou Mines. 

MADERA
MADERA uses musical and dance improvisation to explore themes of environment, industrialization, destruction, and regeneration. You’ll be transported to the wide, open, and desolate Atacama Desert in Northern Chile through the experimental soundscape of the double bass and piano. The piece is an immersive, imaginative journey to the once bustling communities of the saltpeter mines and to the destruction of these communities as the demand for the mineral diminishes. The ghost towns that are now left behind remain a scar on the land. The process of regeneration is a long and painful one.
