FUERZA FEMENINA! • AMERICAN DREAM • This performance dove into the deep and treacherous waters of American Dream ideology, slowly dissecting the elements that led to the the explosion of the financial powers that be. The piece opens with a Shirley-Temple-inspired, tap-dancing American icon, who slowly becomes corrupted by big business and money, the sexy and powerful military, the media and fear mongers, and eventually the American Dream breaks down into a wild fit and collapses. But in the end, America was revived by the a wave of obnoxiously optimistic Youth, who strip away the blindfolds, gags, masks and scarlet letter to reveal a new hope for tomorrow…in the form of a large scale synchronized dance number.
