PERFORMANCE: My Great Work by David Espinosa
cSPACE Marda Loop
Level 1 – Studio Theatre
February 6, 2026
7:00 PM – 8:00 PM
Working with the mindset of an architect, Espinosa constructs a vast “mega-production” with miniature figures, objects, and a tabletop that is both stage and world. This intimate performance, designed for just 20 spectators seated around a table, transforms models typically used to plan buildings into a space where ideas, images, and actions unfold with surprising emotional force.
“My Great Work is what I would do if I had an unlimited budget, the largest theatre in the world, 300 actors on stage, a military orchestra, a rock band, animals, cars and a helicopter.” -D. Espinosa
At a scale of 1:87, My Great Work captures the grandeur of human existence with the humblest of means. A marvel of simple, visual storytelling, it connects us to each other with infinite complexity.
My Great Work reflects on the precarious conditions under which most artists operate, where creativity often emerges from scarcity rather than abundance. By shrinking an extravagant spectacle down to miniature scale, Espinosa exposes the contradictions of large, high-budget cultural productions: their excess, their fragility, and their relative artistic value.
A playful yet incisive portrait of the world we build and the dreams we chase, My Great Work is as intimate as it is expansive.
