Meet Iphigenia, the pampered daughter of a ruthless Latin American dictator who learns that she is to be sacrificed for the good of her father. To escape her fate, she embarks on an Alice-in-Wonderland-style trip through the dark fringes of society to reach a rave on the northernmost edge of the city. See what happens when Greek tragedy, an androgynous rock star named Achilles, the ghosts of the Women of Juarez, ecstasy-fueled dancers, the modern media circus, and a history of corrupt rulers are all invited to the same huge party.
Iphigenia Crash Land Falls on the Neon Shell That Was Once Her Heart (a rave fable) is written by Caridad Svich and directed by Ianthe Demos and Danny Bernardy. Featuring original music by Brian Simerson, with lyrics by Caridad Svich.
