[Capdist-announce] 9/26/09 - Performance - MopCO presents CENTRALIA

[The Mop & Bucket Co. Publicity]

THE MOP & BUCKET CO. PRESENTS 
CENTRALIA SHOW, 
WORKSHOP AT UPSTAIRS AT PROCTORS

The Mop & Bucket Co. will present renowned NYC improv troupe CENTRALIA at
Proctors Upstairs at 440.
 
The Onion's AV New York recently had this to say about Centralia: 
Centralia is an improv troupe that is fluid, gymnastic, transformative, and
very smart. It’s experimental, and not in a bad way: The performers slide
from character to character and from scene to scene effortlessly,
transforming any props at hand—a chair, say—to anything from a knife to a
sandwich to a pair of barber’s shears.

            CENTRALIA (ONE NIGHT ONLY)
		Saturday, September 26th @ 8 p.m.

Mission Statement
Live performance fills a central, universal need of humankind. This need
cannot be met by passive reception of electronic or virtual paths, but must
be experienced with all five senses. MopCo believes that the best theatre
comes out of an active collaboration between performer and audience. We
constantly expand, refine, and redefine our own concept of what
improvisation in performance is. This is because the company acts on the
assumption that that which is unchanging is probably dead, and will
therefore begin to stink soon, if it doesn’t already. 

The company uses improvisation as a direct form of entertainment in
performance; as a developmental tool that helps individuals in their own
personal development, and as an interactive training tool for businesses and
nonprofits.
