Centering on how truth and lies interact with technology, The Looking Glass Self by Mugwumpin is an immersive theater experience that invites you to realize impact of truth-altering video technology.
Experience your likeness projected back to you in unexpected ways, as reality-warping visuals display the manipulative proficiency of video editing processes in real time. The Looking Glass Self is poetic and scary fun.
Mugwumpin is an award-winning San Francisco theater and performance company, part of a wave of young American companies who are expanding the artform by questioning the primacy of text and narrative in theater and playfully transgressing received notions of the audience-performer relationship.
VISION
Live art that ignites radical collaboration, empathy, and curiosity
MISSION
Mugwumpin creates collective live art for people with an appetite for questions and visceral experience.
