Americana Kamikaze

Synopsis:
Temporary Distortion climbs back inside one of their signature box structures-this time delving into the worlds of Japanese ghost stories and "J-Horror". a theatre and cinema hybrid, Americana Kamikaze is haunted by vengeful spirits and doppelgangers, impossible physical manipulations, elliptical storylines, creepy sound designs, equally creepy cinematography, bizarrely happy endings-and even the saccharine pop songs.

Someone In The Ghost Box Told Me It Was You

Synopsis:
This is a new performance piece by the experimental theatre company Temporary Distortion. This description is from their press materials: "Featuring a claustrophic set design, in which the performers are literally trapped inside large wooden boxes with just enough room to stand, outfitted with fluorescent lights, plexiglass, surveillance cameras, and audio equipment, Someone in the Ghost Box Told Me It Was You is a theatrical meditation on the subjects of entrapment, surveillance, love, suicide, and psychosis. Piecing together shattered memories, Victor begins to realize he may have murdered his lover on a subway platform. But is there actually another force at work that feeds off of Victor's darkness and confusion?"

Welcome To Nowhere (Bullet Hole Road)

Synopsis:
Part road movie, part fractured memory, part love story. . .Welcome to Nowhere (bullet hole road) employs one of Temporary Distortion s claustrophobic boxlike installations to stage the story of a man who is haunted by his past and drifting across America. There is blood across the dashboard, headlights in the rearview mirror, and the vague memory of a hitchhiker who may have been a dream. Welcome to Nowhere (bullet hole road) is a hybrid of stage and cinema. During the performance, a constant stream of video is projected above the heads of the cast. In scenes of prolonged silence, stillness and impassivity, doppelgangers of the characters we meet onstage navigate a hyper-real world as if lost in a dream. While the stage characters specters float silently above them, the text is spoken live by the actors onstage in a way that mimics accepted cinematic tendencies and references filmic styles of performance
