A Weekend with Pablo Picasso
Projection design
Director: Todd Salovey
Written and performed by Herbert Siguenza
Los Angeles Theatre Center
Presented by Latino Theater Company

Picture

Acclaimed actor-writer Herbert Siguenza (of Culture Clash) returns to Los Angeles with his first one man show. Siguenza brings his virtuosic writing, acting and painting skills into Picasso’s private studio, “Le Californie” on the coast of France in 1957 for an intimate and revealing weekend into the creative mind and work of one of the most inspiring artists of modern history. Picasso’s controversial and flamboyant opinions and creations gripped the public imagination and forever changed 20th century art history. This play explores Picasso’s proclamations about ambition, destruction, creativity, love and art as an agent of social change. 


In Los Angeles, the show moved into Theater 3 at LATC. This space is very steep, the architecture based on the Greek amphitheater, and once again...the video design had to be re-imagined and re-configured to move from the surround of a four channel system to a two channel front projection system in a proscenium stage layout.  We also eliminated licensed copyrighted imagery to bring the show into budget, inserting original Herbert Siguenza artwork and public domain footage.
