Recently revived on Broadway to critical acclaim, Top Girls offers an unapologetic look at women’s advancement in the workplace and the sacrifices we’ve made to get there. With humor and pathos, groundbreaking playwright Caryl Churchill transports us to Margaret Thatcher’s London as she tells the story of Marlene, an ambitious executive who’s lost her soul in pursuit of success.

PANORAMA: Multi Media Happening

Friday, November 14, 5–7 pm
Pauley Ballroom, UC Berkeley Campus

Inspired by the experimental performances of Merce Cunningham, John Cage, and Robert Rauschenberg, Panorama is a multi-media performance event, bringing together dancers, choreographers, visual artists, scientists, engineers, roboticists, and digital game makers to create an evening of interactive theater. Live performance, robotic cameras, and sensor technologies are juxtaposed with large and small scale projections, while virtual touch can be experienced inside tele-immersive stations. Designed to be viewed in 360°, Panorama unfolds in synchronized looping patterns that audience members may enter at any time. Presented by Cal Performances in association with the Department of Theater, Dance and Performance Studies (TDPS), Berkeley Center for New Media (BCNM), Center for Information Technology Research in the Interest of Society (CITRIS), Center for New Music and Audio Technology (CNMAT), and the Departments of Art Practice and Music.

Panorama Artistic Director: Lisa Wymore (TDPS)
