Near to the Wild Heart
by Clarice Lispector
Translated by Alison Entrekin
Adapted & Directed by Ildiko Nemeth
The award-winning New Stage Theatre Company presents Near to the Wild Heart, a multimedia theatre production based on the modernist masterpiece by Clarice Lispector, adapted and directed by Ildiko Nemeth from the translation by Alison Entrekin. The production will debut December 5 to January 18 at the New Stage Performance Space, 36 West 106th St in Manhattan. This is the English-language premiere and first-ever North American stage adaptation of Lispector’s sensational debut novel.
Near to the Wild Heart is a multimedia theatre piece that evokes a rich, expansive female interior in dramatizing the life and passions of its heroine, Joana. Wandering through the corridors of her mind, Joana sees her memories manifest alongside her imagistic, abstract thoughts. Dwelling amidst the poignancy of a lonely childhood and her own resistance to the concept of conventional marriage and happiness, she strives to embody a version of herself on her own terms.
