Me&You: In a Dialogue is a collective reading performance in which the audience members sit together to read series of letters addressed by me to you. Each person has a choice to select one of the four hyperwords in each letter progressing them to the next, to construct their own narrative.
The letters create multiple stories interweaving biography, autobiography, comment, critique, rebuke, lament, angst; unfolding untold accounts of inequality in cultural participation, censorship, capitalism & tribal nationalism, religion & morality, and the commodification of the arts.
