A Festival of Firsts.
Second to None.
FirstWorks Festival 2011
September 22-November 13
Celebrating FirstWorks’ biggest season ever, Festival 2011 transformed Providence into a multistage spectacle of tour de force performances. Audiences entered a world of illusion and movement through the deep green lens of MOMIX’ Botanica. Over 1,650 students, teachers and community members were mesmerized by the Caravanserai, a pageant of master drummers and musicians from Karachi. Mozart was turned on his ear by the soulful strings of Brooklyn Rider. And Providence was thrilled to blur the lines between the real and the imagined with performance artist Laurie Anderson during her 3-day residency.
