Featuring:
Cory Einbinder, Kalle Macrides, & Jared Mezzocchi

|
Description:
|
It is very likely that I, Object! is a story about three
obsessive individuals and the objects they keep. However, it may be that it's actually
a story about objects and the people they keep. Whichever perspective you take,
I, Object! unleashes the power of our everyday belongings
and asks the question, if we can't get rid of our possessions, who is really the possessed?

Description:

This world premiere will blend Rock, Tango, Jazz and Punk music with
contemporary dance to re-imagine Karel Čapek's original 1921 classic,
R.U.R (Rossum's Universal Robots). Čapek's play that started
it all, introducing the word ROBOT into the world's lexicon and into our
fantasies, is reexamined for the 21st Century.
This project is sponsored, in part, by the Greater New York Arts
Development Fund of the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs,
administered by the Brooklyn Arts Council, Inc. (BAC).

BIOGRAPHIES and HEADSHOTS

Description:
|
|
Chantecler, by Edmond Rostand, author of Cyrano de
Bergerac is an animal allegory about a rooster who believes that
his song makes the sun rise. 's
production investigated the themes of inspiration, finding our place in
society, and overcoming our greatest doubts and fears.
With our resident composer's 3 piece band performing an original score, 2
visual artists drawing the world of the play as it transpired, and 10 actors
playing over 100 characters using puppets, masks, and physical theater,
broke new ground in the theater by offering a uniquely live
experience for the whole family.
Director Cory Einbinder returned to this play 10 years after his critically
acclaimed first production, hailed as:
"gorgeously imaginative staging... artistic triumph of the year...
Cory Einbinder has reached into an enormous bag of tricks to give
this production an almost non-stop sense of whimsy." -- Citipaper
"Imagination abounds... Einbinder has to be commended on his witty,
atmospheric production." -- Philadelphia Weekly
"amazingly powerful... Cory Einbinder directs with imagination...
deserves to be seen by a much larger audience." -- Hats Off
Not seen in New York since it's original Broadway production in 1911,
this fresh translation brought back the poetry and vitality of the original
French. We celebrated the year of the rooster with this king of the
barnyard - Chantecler.
