SUMMARY:REFLECTION: Travel Guide to Nicaragua
DESCRIPTION:REGIONAL PREMIERE \nComposed by Michael Gordon \nDirected by Sam Brukhman \nTravel Guide to Nicaragua by acclaimed composer Michael Gordon is a deeply personal and reflective work that unravels the hidden layers of his family’s Jewish heritage. After the passing of his grandmother\, a Holocaust survivor\, Gordon uncovers the complex history of his family’s journey across continents. This composition weaves fragmented memories and unspoken truths\, offering a poignant meditation on identity\, memory\, and legacy. \nGordon’s work blends Jewish and Nicaraguan musical influences to create a unique soundscape that invites listeners to engage with the silences and stories that shape our understanding of the past. Praised by The New York Times for his ability to reveal “unspoken truths\,” Travel Guide to Nicaragua challenges audiences to reflect on the lasting impact of heritage\, migration\, and survival. \nThis profound exploration of personal history serves as both a tribute to Gordon’s family and an invitation for audiences to contemplate the untold stories within their own lives. \nRun Time: ONE (1) hour + Post-show talkback (25 minutes)\nNo intermission
