The Grass is Always Greener...
Immigration. Roots. Discrimination. Memory. Conceived by Argentinean choreographer Anabella Lenzu, The Grass is Always Greener… is a gripping, polemical piece of dance theater that hashes the personal, practical, and political struggles of immigrants to the United States. The piece moves between the turn of the twentieth century––during the great waves of immigration at Ellis Island––and the modern day. In a non-linear approach, the work weaves in scenes from our current conflict on U.S. immigration policy, bringing the contemporary debate into sharp relief against historical, forgotten experiences.
