Let My People Go: Performance
Astrid Bas—the acclaimed Parisian actress, dancer and director—commissioned animated projections of Hebrabric/Arabrew© phrases, including “Let My People Go,” a Hebrabric/Arabrew© phrase created in 2014, to be a part of her multimedia performance.
Bas’s multidisciplinary piece, an exploration of bondage and liberty, which she ultimately entitled “Let My People Go,” had its international premiere at New York Live Arts Performance Center in Chelsea in 2016 .
The New Yorker wrote that Astrid’s piece “…honors courage in the face of death,” and her engaging performance explored the yearning to find light in the darkness.
