For this new performance Jenna Bliss draws on the history of the Lincoln Recovery Center in the South Bronx, New York.
About
The centre was initiated in 1970 when the Young Lords, community health workers from the Health Revolutionary Unity Movement and local addicts occupied Lincoln Hospital and announced a drug detox program.
Bliss brings together diverse elements that trace the history of the centre to the present day, allowing spheres of social engagement to be exposed, disrupted and reassembled.
