Synopsis
This Faith-Based Bridge Show was a sprawling, panoramic epic that stages an interlocking chain of unexpected encounters between 10 communities of faith in today's Los Angeles and features 57 professional and community artists. Inspired by the religious history of Los Angeles, hundreds of faith-cycle participants and Schnitzler's classic play La Ronde, it traces a joyous, painful, surprising and restless circle through our wide-open spiritual landscape in the City of Angels. Performed at the Ford Amphitheatre in Hollywood.
