Episode # 165 - Temporary Distortion
nytheatrecast correspondent Robin Reed goes on location in this episode to provide us with a sneak preview of the latest show from Temporary Distortion, Welcome to Nowhere (bullet hole road), which plays at Chocolate Factory Theatre in Long Island City in October 2007.
Temporary Distortion uses multimedia to create very distinctive and unusual theatre works. This particular piece is a meditation on travel. Robin speaks with director Kenneth Collins and video artist William Cusick about their collaboration; she also interviews actors Ben Beckley and Stacey Collins about what it’s like to work on a Temporary Distortion piece.
Best of all, this episode includes rehearsal footage, excerpts from the show, and a song.
