Centering on the political rifts currently cleaving society, Confirmation attempts to have an honorable dialogue, real and imagined, with extremist thinking. Developed through a series of conversations between Thorpe and a British activist from the extreme right, Confirmation tackles frustrations within political discourse and the phenomenon of “Confirmation Bias.”
Confirmation is the first in a trilogy of pieces being made by UK-based writer and performer Chris Thorpe (Unlimited, Mala Vadora, Third Angel) and US-based director Rachel Chavkin (The TEAM).
Co-presented by Performance Space 122 and The Invisible Dog Art Center.
Part of PS122 – Coil 2016
Co-Produced by Warwick Arts Centre and China Plate.
