"Without knowing anything about the plot, the fact that so many rock stars of downtown New York theater
were going to be in one room was enough for me." Bess Rowen, Huffington Post (read the whole interview)

"I’m trying to remember when I first saw the performance artist Carmelita Tropicana, but that’s like trying to remember
someone’s first time making you laugh: there are no specifics, just feelings." Hilton Als, The New Yorker


Part live performance, part video installation, this piece offers a glimpse into a future in which celebrity culture has pitched
a battle between the primacy of virtual and artistic lives; in which revolutionaries keep bees in a secret underground;
and in which a half-woman, half-bear scientist has gained the upper hand... Video teaser: http://youtu.be/I4sHyUfAs-E
