DARKHEART - A Concert Narrative by award-winning artist, singer, and songwriter Golda Sargento is a live theatrical experience that questions whether art can survive in a post-apocalyptic world. With live music from Bay Area’s own Chris “Burd” Quines - Guitar & Bass, Carlie Mari - Bass & Sound Design, and Blair Switch - Drums, visual elements by shadow puppeteer Aureen Almario and projection artist, Joan Osato, and led by Michelle Talgarow, this endeavor pushes the boundaries of the stage to immerse the audience in a world filled with revelry.
