BICYCLE THIEVES is a PuSh International Performance Festival performance. The film is projected with no sound. Onstage, the four actors – Marco Soriano, Stefano Guilianetti, Susan Bertoia, and Sal Sortino – provide live voiceovers in Italian while Mark Haney (bass), Martin Fisk (percussion), Molly MacKinnon (violin), Marina Hasselberg (cello), Emily Jane King (piano, keyboard) and Michael Simpsonelli (mandolin, guitar, percussion) bring Pankanea’s haunting score to life. Prepare to be moved and enthralled.
