Brooklyn-based performance group CAROL to present Disaster Theater as a part of Cannonball Festival
A bio-engineered fly in the ointment, acid rain on our parade, ice cream melting on the hot hot sidewalk. Disaster Theater repurposes pop culture disaster tropes to confront an endless cycle of catastrophe. Deconstructed public service announcements, plague diaries, doomsday films, and more coalesce into an intricate performance collage.
"Skye Fort and Mike Steele’s finely crafted devising, in tandem with their performers’ relentless commitment, hyper-sensitizes their audiences to understanding dystopia no longer as an imagined future, but as an embodied present,” (Jonathan Matthews-Guzman, Eye On The Arts, NY).
