![]() X: The Human Condition-- X:THC
Live, dynamic concert performance by musical group X: THC, enhanced by emotionally charged film visuals, creates an uplifting and stimulating shock to the senses.
X: THC breaks down the walls between musical genres, challenging categorization, while communicating performance through multiple sensory applications, known as "synesthesia".
Hypnotically delicious, it is a trance-inducing trip inside the human subconscious, combining surreal soundscapes with phantasmagorical visual storytelling to create a unique and inspiring music and film experience. The story of X: The Human Condition reflects the real life experience of writer/composer and vocalist of X: THC, Michael Nova, who battled against Chronic Kidney Disease, Uveitis and Pigmentary Dispersion Syndrome causing the loss of his vision during the making of this film.
He has since fully recovered. This limited engagement three night preview performance marks the first time X: The Human Condition will be seen in public.

About The Associated Mask Ensemble:
The Associated Mask Ensemble aims to create new work inspired by the mask theater style of Jacques Lecoq that explores the human condition and illuminates human behavior. Drawing on many theatrical traditions such as Commedia dell'Arte, Circus, Clowning, Butoh Dance and Musical Theater, we strive to present intriguing stage images and actions and try to combine new technologies with old when it serves to benefit the story.
Daniel Brodie has worked on projections for many productions including Rock of Ages, Peepshow, and Creature from the Black Lagoon and designed the projections for Basil Twist's Behind the Lid and Arias With a Twist. Jonothon Lyons is a performing company member with Imago Theatre's Frogz, Biglittlethings and ZooZoo. The content of this production has been heavily influcenced by the work of Jerry Maouwad and Carol Triffle.

Misery and Good Fortune
Four people and one bed hardly constitute an orgy when everyone is seeking for a deeper connection.
Wait. She Waits.
Planning a dinner is exciting for this out-of-sorts host. Although it turns out differently than
expected, nothing goes to waste.

FACE is a lyrical rendition of a girl's story who survived two wars.
Based on the book of testimonies of comfort women, this play is a theatrical experiment to give voice to the suppressed history and to find ways of reconnecting with one's memory through body and psyche.
An "American Girl Narrative" with a ticking-time bomb.
Nancy, an ex-Quaker from the wrong side of the tracks wants to become a cheerleader at her new school. Will she, with the help of Jen, her quirky sidekick, be able to overcome the wrath of Lindsay Mack, the most popular girl in school? More importantly, will star athlete Brad ever love her back? A standard female narrative is interrupted by moments of gut-wrenching ugliness, pacified with uncomfortable pleasures and simple honesty- resulting in a deeply ambivalent and unnerving experience of theater in Everywhere Theatre Group's, The Formula Play by Leah Winkler.
Starring: Nancy Upton, Jen Kwok, Mary Mailhot and Lindsay Mack

Presents
MICROWORLD(s) Part #1
MICROWORLD(s) Part #1 is a solo theater work set in Tokyo played within a LED lit 3' by 3' by 8' transforming white box about a Serbian astrophysicist named Milo, who lives in the soon to be demolished Nakagin Capsule Tower in Tokyo. Milo is fascinated by Nikola Tesla, Shakespeare, US comedian Bill Hicks, and Fumio, his rubber duckie. MICROWORLD(s) Part #1 is the first theater work performed 'off the grid' --- all it's energy comes from renewable sources. Performed by Drama League and Lortel nominee, Thaddeus Phillips.
"Thaddeus Phillips would have made a great silent film comedian"
-The New York Times
"Watching Thaddeus Phillips at work makes you feel as if you're on a mind altering drug... His DNA might hold traces of Charlie Chaplin, Rowan Atkinson and, perhaps, Einstein".
-Philadelphia Inquirer
Created by Lucidity Suitcase Intercontinental

LOVE & GEOGRAPHY
Directed by Tara Ahmadinejad
Adapted from the 1885 play by Bjørnstjerne Bjørnson
Produced by PIEHOLE
All Geography and no Love simply won't do in Piehole's museum installation of Bjornstjerne Bjornson's long-forgotten play. Featuring toy theater, 3D puppets, dioramas, video, and small-talking automatons, this abandoned exhibit pines over love, whines over loss, and obsesses over location in time/space. Join us on a farcical tour through (super)nature.
