The Berlin-L.A.-Minnesota co-production by Barrie Kosky and experimental British troupe 1927 “is an interactive, nontraditional reinvention that combines live performance and hand-drawn animation; it weaves throughout visual references to silent films of the 1920s and 1930s, specifically the comedy of Buster Keaton and the kitschy horror of the 1922 German Expressionist film Nosferatu.”
