Happy Hour On The Fringe

In this episode of Happy Hour on the Fringe Marketing Manager Raina Searles talks with Rachel Gita Karp and Joseph Amodei whose production Packing and Cracking will run from September 23-September 30 as part of the 2020 Fringe festival. Packing and Cracking will be presented via zoom, and is an interactive mapmaking event which explores how politicians choose their voters through gerrymandering. Packing and Cracking combines critical cartography, gerrymandering history, and interviews with today’s politicians and reformers to reveal how easy and disenfranchising gerrymandering can be and to ask participants the critical question of “what, if anything, we should do about it?” Listen to Raina, Rachel, and Joseph discuss the making of Packing and Cracking, Gerrymandering in Pennsylvania, and what you can expect as a participant in Packing and Cracking.  To Learn more about Packing and Cracking and how to get involved you can visit the event page on Fringearts.com: https://fringearts.com/event/packing-and-cr
