This is Not What I Expected When I Imagined a Republic by Daria Miyeko Marinelli and directed by ameenah kaplan is a historical triptych following the development of our nation from courageous nomads to cash-strapped IKEA millennials.Part dance-theatre, part card game, and part good old kitchen drama, This is Not What I Expected When I Imagined a Republic challenges the Usonian* mythologies of what it means to be a republic(an), how thats changed over time, and what you should do when you discover your supposedly future life partner has just voted Republican. And you are not a Republican.*Usonian: Of, and or related to The United States.This work is being created in a socially distanced but abundantly creative environment and developed by an ingenious team of tenacious artists. This is Not What I Expected When I Imagined a Republic premieres online as streamed content on Nov. 13, 2020 (more details soon). Join us and discover the unexpected!(Post opening night talkback with Daria and ameenah is available now on Tantrum Theater's Facebook page)
