DRONE is a new play by Andrea Assaf, and a transdisciplinary performance project integrating theatre, live music, emerging technologies, and artistic containers for public dialogue. It explores the drone as a metaphor for how we become desensitized to daily violence, domestic and global, the question of Moral Injury, and the effects of remote-control warfare on the human soul. This performance of new work-in-progress will include a staged reading of the full play, with live music exploring "droning" in traditions from the U.S. South to Southwest and Central Asia.Â
The performance will be followed by a facilitated dialogue with the invited audience.
