425 Lafayette St, New York, NY 10003
A young woman travels alone from Tokyo to New York City to be a star. Using a 16mm silent film, live music and traditional Japanese performance techniques—including Benshi film narration—Club Diamond explores how truth gets manipulated into story and the gap between perception and reality.
Nikki Appino is an award-winning theater artist and filmmaker. Saori Tsukada has been described as a “charismatic mover”(Back Stage) and “startlingly precise dancer” (NY Times). The two strive to examine identity and “telling the truth”, with the theme of East meet West.
