(Un)Afraid

Synopsis:
The New York Neo-Futurists' Fall 2010 horror show and fear experiment, (un)afraid, celebrates and examines the concept, causes, and consequences of fear, both in our society and in ourselves. attempting to summon a different guest spirit each performance, from such deceased masters of horror as Edgar allen Poe, HP Lovecraft, Mary Shelley, M.R, and James, The New York Neo-Futurists call upon the forces of chance and change to present a different show every night, putting expectations on shaky ground and melding our mythical fear of what goes bump in the night with the terror of simply living. Combining elements of personal ghost story, video assault, monster-mash-mayhem, and audience-interactive freak-out, Neo-Futurists Jill Beckman, Cara Francis, Daniel McCoy , and Ricardo Gamboa will usher you beyond the very edge of their, and your, most startling, gruesome, and diabolical fears.

Piper Mckenzie's Dainty Cadaver

Synopsis:
18 playwrights. 3 plays. One performance of each. Piper McKenzie's Dainty Cadaver is an Exquisite Corpse-style playmaking project in which multiple playwrights collaborate on a single work without knowing what the hell the others are doing. Each writer reads the previous scene, writes a new scene, and passes it on to the next writerwho doesn't see any of what came earlier. Beautiful madness ensues. For its inaugural edition, Piper McKenzie will present one-night-only performances of three new plays written in this unique collaborative style, with results ranging from inspired chaos to eerie synchronicityall tied together by the unique voices of 18 hot playwrights, divided into three teams and staged by three directors. The teams and their performance details are as follows: TEaM a: Fri 1/28, 8pm: Johnna adams, Eric Bland, Jeff Lewonczyk, Mac Rogers, Crystal Skillman, art Wallace. Directed by Jordana Williams.

Soup Show, The

Synopsis:
New York Neo-Futurists Desiree Burch, Cara Francis, and Erica Livingston serve up a cure for what ails you in this Neo-Medicine show, performing in and around a giant pot of self-made soup. Bottling this soup, as well as a series of elixirs, potions, tonics, and products, they heal and reveal the female experience live, honest, and in the flesh. Incorporating ingredients from interviews, living newspaper, personal stories, circus acts, and freak shows, the women of The Soup Show ultimately feed their audiences with a question "How far has the women's movement moved us?" The fierce trio honor the 30th anniversary of Women's History Month. aDVISORY: adult language and nudity.
