Description
Summary:"Lazarus is an interdisciplinary, imagistic meditation on the resurrected man transplanted from its Biblical setting to the surreal, urban purgatory of New York City in the 1970's. It is a deeply personal work about cultural alienation disguised as a Biblical story. Lazarus was -- with the exception of a voice over, sound effects and some music -- a silent, poetic, nonlinear work. Lazarus was Ping Chong's first independently created theater work. It established his seminal integration of slide and film projection, puppetry and recorded sound in a theater work."
