Description

The title comes from the names of three neighboring streets in downtown Los Angeles: Grand Avenue, Hope Street, and Flower Street. The performers stand on a stage marked with a grid, each in a small square lit by a different house lamp. The performers, and the lamps, are distinctly different from each other, varying in size, age, shape, and color. Using text based on the physics of light and fairy tales in several languages, and set against a landscape of fragmented movement, Grand Hope Flower creates a densely-packed portrait of the urban isolation, tiny crimes, epic disasters, and relentless optimism of daily life in the mythic city of Los Angeles, 1999 March 15.
