Twilight Los Angeles, 1992 – Meg Kennell, Dec. 2010
Anna Deavere Smith’s one-woman docu-play “Twilight: Los Angeles, 1992” is among the most durable artworks to emerge from the ashes of L.A.’s 1992 riots. Based on hours of interviews with about 300 people, the prismatic show was a tour de force in which Smith originally played more than 40 different characters, including then-Police Chief Daryl Gates, truck driver Reginald Denny, a former L.A. gang member and a Korean woman. Featuring Meg Kennell( ’11), Molly Kellogg, Kristina Mast and Leah Moreno. Directed by Patrick Maxwell.
