Quotations from a Ruined City - Los Angeles (1990) 89 minutes
One of Reza Abdoh's final productions; Text by Reza Abdoh and Salar Abdoh, Directed by Reza Abdoh "Quotations from a Ruined City is a sort of apocalyptic follies: an evening of song, dance, poetry, nudity and torture set in a world whose center has clearly long ceased to hold. Created and directed by the gifted young theatrical cult artist Reza Abdoh, the work is a kaleidoscopic catalogue of images of decay and destruction that range through the centuries and around the globe."--New York Times, 1994.
