The Great Yes, The Great No

The Adrienne Arsht Center presents the U.S. premiere of The Great Yes, The Great No, a multimedia performance conceived and directed by acclaimed South African artist William Kentridge. Inspired by actual events, The Great Yes, The Great No takes place aboard a ship of refugees and prominent 20th-century figures looking to escape Vichy France during World War II. Through his fictional retelling, Kentridge employs music, dancing, acting, photography and his signature animated drawings to challenge rationalist worldviews with surrealism’s boundless possibilities.
