The Hinterlands Embracing the unknown
Performances
*Dreamtigers*
Commissioned by PuppetArt Detroit, *Dreamtigers* is a family-friendly work inspired by the works of Jorge Luis Borges, Octavio Paz, Julio Cortazar and Gabriel Garcia Marquez that weaves shadow and object puppetry as well as physical comedy into a tale of wakeful dreaming.
*Isaac Newton is Our DJ*
Physically explosive and shockingly funny, Isaac Newton is Our DJ is part clown play, part dance party, and part science experiment. Isaac Newton is Our DJ uses dance, shadow puppetry, minimal techno, party games, low-tech lecture, comedy, Newton’s laws of motion, and spectacular imagery to bring the audience into a world where what comes up doesn’t always come down.
*Manifest Destiny! (there was blood on the saddle)*
A site-specific psychedelic Wild West Show inspired by the language of Cormac McCarthy and William S. Burroughs performed in 2011 at Detroit’s historic Jam Handy Building and at Milwaukee’s Pitman Theater as a part of the Alverno Presents series. Premiered at The Cooking Fire Theatre Festival, Toronto, Canada 2010.
