about . . .
HOW SOON IS NOW is an alarmingly effective look at group hysteria and scapegoating in the age of terrorism. The audience is drawn together to witness the capture and execution of the big bad wolf. Inspired by the classic children’s tale Peter And The Wolf and Fritz Lang’s 1931 film M, and Emir Kusturica’s 1995 film Underground, this performance work examines the tensions that form between individual desire and societal demand.
