| Synopsis: | Meet Fred. Fred loves his job, his family, his country. His newest task is creating buzz for 'Red Kool-Aid with Holy Water Crystals', but in the midst of the product launch, something happens. A mysterious force interrupts Fred's secure multi-channel TV world, catapulting Fred's unwavering loyalty to family, country and corporate headquarters into a whirlwind of doubt. In an attempt to combat his confusion, Fred mixes the perfect pitcher of Kool-Aid again and again. As he desperately tries to stick to message, he cannot escape the haunting memories of his childhood in Portugal, his life before he became a successful American executive. Drinking the Kool-Aid combines visual/physical theatre, multi-channel video projections and good old-fashioned storytelling to create a world where mass marketing, religion, and politics intersect Press Release | |||||
