Show Information

Obie Award winner and “multi-media whiz” (New York Times) Jared Mezzocchi tells the story of his mother’s relationship to NASA and outer space while asking us to think about the passage of time, parent-child relationships, and holding competing truths. Using the simplest tools—a VCR camera from the 1980s, an overhead projector, and a pull-down screen—he transports audiences from a diner into outer space, while he seamlessly transitions from playing his mother, his father, his aunt, and of course, himself. Jared Mezzocchi is visiting through the Hope Abelson Artist-in-Residence Program, which was established at the School of Communication in 1990 through a generous gift from Hope Altman Abelson.

Estimated Run Time: 80 minutes, no intermission
