CASSETTE '93 by Karoline Palacios Jørgensen
OSO Arts Centre in Barnes
11 - 13 April
Laced with nostalgia, music & letters, "Cassette '93" tackles different concepts of family, love, & culture. "Cassette ’93" is a new piece of writing inspired by the lives of real women from Colombia. This nonlinear piece explores the lives of three women across two timelines, each struggling with their own values, identities, and ambitions. But it just might be the 90’s Colombian tape recordings that bring these women together again.
