Epic

Work:: Epic (S01318832865)

Production:: (T1442857777)

Four performers track down the history of their own families, digging up the secrets of an English family in the Northern mines, a French family caught between colonialism in Cameroon and May 1968 Paris, and a grandfather on a torpedoed boat at the close of the Second World War. A playful and experimental journey through the past hundred years, Epic combines personal stories, video interaction, fanciful re-enactments of key 20th century events, and a cameo from Bertolt Brecht. Epic creates moments of intimacy while also connecting us to the bigger picture.
