A Great Disturbance – the Life and Writings of Simone Weil

A dramatic reading with music and images, at MUSO, 2040 Winnebago. Weil was – and is - a very controversial and challenging figure. Her writings on attention, war and peace are all too relevant today. Sonia Baku will be the voice of Simone, Alex Hancock will narrate her brief but compelling life, with music from Isaiah Dobbins on piano. And of course, free as always.
