About The Cockroach Diary
At National Sawdust, *The Cockroach Diary* arrives as a live classical performance anchored by featured performer Nicoletta Todesco. The work treats the diary form as an onstage document, tracing everyday survival and private thought through sound rather than plot. In a city where new music often tests how narrative can live inside a concert hall, this piece leans into intimacy and observation. Its restraint feels purposeful, asking listeners to sit with discomfort instead of resolving it.
