In this transformative multimedia solo show, Sophia Gutchinov explores the profound depths of love through a deeply personal lens of Indigenous ceremony and modern dating. Drawing from her unique Italian-Mongolian heritage, she weaves a narrative that bridges cultural divides, reflecting her background of a Buddhist father and Catholic mother. The performance incorporates projections, comedy and spoken word, creating an immersive experience that confronts personal roots and identity. Collaborating with artists from diverse backgrounds—including AAPI, Latin, Black, LGBTQ+ and Kalmyk tribal performers—Gutchinov examines her family’s complex history, including her grandparents’ escape from WWII, her parent’s nomadic journey to…New Jersey and her recent journey to her father’s homeland, all viewed through an intersection of acting and neuroscience.
