Andrea Kleine, an “enigmatic and eccentric” (The New York Times), “brainy, allusive Downtown artist” (Village Voice), whose work is “something like genius” (ArtVoice), has been absent from the stage for a decade. She resurfaces as the choreographer/filmmaker Yvonne Rainer and Rainer’s lion-tamer-turned-dancer character “Kristina,” transforming a verbatim talk show interview into an imaginary film recounting Kleine’s journey of disappearance.
Created by Andrea Kleine. Performed by Michael Kammers, Andrea Kleine, Paul Langland, Anya Liftig, Bobby Previte, and Vicky Shick. Music by Bobby Previte. Lighting Design by David Overcamp.
