Home Sick is the result of a two-year working and research collaboration between Jim and Joanne Savio. It is both a memoir, and a transnational glimpse at what home means. It is not meant to answer the question: What is home? Rather, it hopes to instill a sense of curiosity and contemplation in the audience. It is deeply personal, and at the same time, it’s about everyone.
Interviewing a wide swath of people from the Middle East, and from around the globe, it took them back to Lebanon and the ancestral villages of Amoiun and Zhale, where Joanne’s mother and grand parents were born.
The project takes the shape of a short experimental documentary film, and integrates written text, music, still images, video, archival super-8 footage, formal and informal interviews, soundscapes, animation, and voice over to create a narrative that sits close the heart of what it means to be human – our longing for home.

With one of the tallest buildings – and most spectacular views – in town, the Hugh’s View rooftop terrace serves as The Studios’ creative space in the sky. The terrace sits four stories above street level and offers panoramic views of the island. The Kitwald Stage glows in the golden twilight of our sunset performances.
With original seating from its days as a Masonic temple, the Helmerich Theater has been updated to also include floor seating. As a black box theater, the set up is intimate but professional, and sets the stage for concerts and performances that leave guests feeling like they really got to know the performer.
