We invite you to slide into the role of an accomplice audience member. You are the secret element on which the show rests. Access a unique, secret way of experiencing a multimedia performance that combines theater, technology, and visual art—and see a mind-bending show for free!
All you will need to do is attend a short orientation before the show, follow simple instructions, and be a part of a transformative performance experience. Take a close look at the inner workings of the show from behind-the-scenes, and become a spectator of a very particular kind.
This is an unpaid opportunity, but we will provide pizza dinner pre-show and a post-show party on stage with the cast! There will also be a free workshop for participants with the company at noon on Friday, August 11.
Bring your friends and family. No experience necessary.
More about the show:
YOUARENOWHERE By Andrew Schendier
Trailer: https://vimeo.com/131798301
Performer, writer, and interactive-electronics artist Andrew Schneider presents his Obie Award-winning show YOUARENOWHERE. This rapid-fire and witty theater performance cycles through expressions of laughter, surprise, and angst. Its dialogue traverses quantum mechanics and parallel universes, missed connections and YouTube videos in an existential meditation on time and presence. The New York Times lauds the show as “A chaotic mix of personal revelation and relativity theory, enhanced by some alarming and splendid visual effects...”
Andrew Schneider has been working in residence at EMPAC to create the follow-up to YOUARENOWHERE, which will receive its World Premiere at EMPAC this September.
Andrew Schneider<http://andrewjs.com/> is a Brooklyn-based artist who creates and performs in original performance works and videos and builds interactive electronic artworks and installations. Schneider was a Wooster Group company member (video/performer) from 2007-2014 and has shown his work at 3LD in New York, the Melbourne Arts Festival, LIFT Festival, and in theaters across France, including Maillon, Théâtre de Strausbourg, and Théâtre de Gennevilliers.
