73 Seconds

A solo performance about the stories we inherit—and the ones we almost never hear. In 73 Seconds, multimedia artist and performer Jared Mezzocchi cracks open the quiet mysteries of his family’s past. What begins as a son’s attempt to better understand his mother soon spirals into a decades-spanning excavation of memory, legacy, and the fragile line between the personal and the cosmic. Celebrated for his genre-defining projection design, “Multi-media whiz” (NYTimes) Mezzocchi now steps into the spotlight. Using both analog and current technology, he constructs a live documentary, blending intimate storytelling with lo-fi magic. 73 Seconds is an inventive, deeply felt new work that asks how we piece together the past—especially when it resists being remembered.
