Come join the Bell Tower Family as we explore popular theatre and political advocacy with Doris Difarnecio, an activist whose work has combined art, politics, and performance through collaborations in Mexico, New York and around the world. Drawing on her theatrical and interdisciplinary background, Doris has developed public programming and academic and artistic research so as to reflect the historical context of the cities she works in. The lectures, projections, public and political actions, performances, art exhibitions, installations and book presentations that Doris has realized have allowed for the blossoming of a collaborative, multilingual and interdisciplinary consortium of institutions, artists, academics and activists.
