Innovative New Orleans theater ensemble NEW NOISE presents Jubilee, an immersive original performance that traverses a hundred years in the life of one family on Alabamas Mobile Bay.
Audiences join the actors for a family supper that seeks to untangle the knot of white Southern identity, unspooling threads of personal ancestry, Southern duality, and the ravages of racism.
Conceived by NEW NOISE Co-Artistic Directors Philip Cramer and Bear Hebert, and directed by company member Lyam Gabel, Jubilee features live original music, a dynamic, monumental set, and a shapeshifting ensemble.
Act II of the performance features a literal supper, with conversation hosted by the ensemble.
Jubilee is the final piece in NEW NOISEs New Southern Hymnal trilogy, following Oxblood (2014) and Runnin Down the Mountain (2013).
Performed by Trey Hartt, Rachel Nelson, and Marie Lovejoy
