A Brief History of America

A Brief History of America 

by Dipika Guha

scenic design: Lindsay Fuori 

costume design: Bri Tobin 

lighting & projection design: Lauren Gallup 

sound design: Stewart Blackwood 

CAST 

Hannah Anderson – Sarah 

India Derewetzky – Sadie 

Anthony Nigro – Roberto 

"Spanning over fifty years, A Brief History of America follows Sarah from childhood, through the care of an ailing step parent to where she must confront her love for her childhood sweetheart, Roberto. A Brief History of America is a play about immigration, love, loss and the true meaning of home." - Dipika Guha  

Our production explored the attention of the average American on their history in relation to the country. We exist in a time where our personal misfortunes are more impactful than the historical events happening around us. To draw attention to the juxtaposition between the personal and the historical, we projected a video of American history onto the flag. The video below is an example of the transition from 1969-2009.
