Description:

"Written and directed by Shana Lutker, The Sleeping Poet and the Jongleuse is a multi-media performance.  The collaging of memoirs, poetry, newspaper accounts, historical essays and music in Lutker's play draws out the web of political, artistic and intellectual motivations of the Surrealists and their associates that have emerged from her research, as well as her own investments and associates.  Part of the fourth chapter in Lutker's ongoing series, Le "NEW" Monocle: The History of the Fistfights of the Surrealists ( 2012 - ), the play is related to Paul, Paul, Paul and Paul, her 2015 exhibition at Susanne Vielmetter Los Angeles Projects."
