Things Hidden Since the Foundation of the World
Alipoor and his collaborators have the skill of turning mind-stretching ideas into theatrically thrilling perforrmance. The show gleefully mashes up genres, smashing together the quiet authority of the murder mystery podcast, the intimacy of autobiographical storytelling and the visual spectacle of multimedia performance - while simultaneously deconstructing each of these forms. In a culture that so often seeks to simplify, this is a dazzling argument of complexity"
