Dear Friends,
Thrilled doesn't begin to capture it!  We are positively elated to announce our upcoming production of Erin Courtney's The Service Road.  We're still in the development stage, but you can catch a sneak peak excerpt at the Prelude Festival, or meet our Bunraku-Video ‘Big Headed Toddler’ Puppet at the World Maker Faire.  We can't wait to share it all with you!
Field Notes from The Service Road
A violent storm of mythic proportions hits Prospect Park.  The once peaceful service road where a nature guide gives tours turns strange and even savage as she attempts to find a lost child.  On her quest she meets the denizens of one of the few natural places left in a large city.  The nature guide is a modern day Hercules – very strong, very loyal, a little thick, and trying to do penance for a very bad thing she had done when she was out of her mind.  Obie award winning playwright (Map of Virtue) Erin Courtney examines what it means to be of service and the true nature of forgiveness.

Meet Our Creative Staff
Puppet designer Cory Einbinder talks about his creation, the Bunraku-Video Puppet.
“We have just completed our technology residency at the New York City College of Technology, where we developed the puppet for the character ‘Big Headed Toddler’.  I call the puppet a Bunraku-Video Puppet because, although the puppet's body is similar to a traditional rod puppet, his face is a 3-dimensional video screen.  Since the puppeteer's face seamlessly transfers to the puppet's face, the puppet becomes a fully interactive performer that can move and displays a full range of human expressions.”
Come see the puppet's first public outing
in the World Maker Faire at the New York Hall of Science
Saturday, Sept. 29th, 10am – 7pm & Sunday, Sept. 30th, 10am – 6pm

We are dedicated to working with artists in a broad range of fields – from fashion designers to scientists, illustrators to engineers – to create experimental, multidisciplinary work.  By challenging these artists to work in the theater we create new perspectives for live performance.  By integrating live music, visual arts, and technological innovations with metaphor and narrative storytelling we create epic experiences that excite the audience's imagination.
