A workshop performance of Bad Water, True West Premiered July 14 & July 15, 2022 at Bad Water Gallery Bad Water, True West is the frist iteration of BAD STARS, an adaptation of Sam Shepard’s play, True West. Each iteration responds to the gallery it is performed in. The adapted script rides off the vapors of Shepard, channeling the wise crackles and nervous energy into a theater of fools, worms and toasters. The piece was performed by Sophia Cleary and Ada Friedman. Beaux Mendes joined as the plein-air painter, to live-paint the narrative as it was being perfromed. Performed By Sophia Cleary...Lee/Coyote Ada Friedman...Austin/Cricket Adam Hughes...Audience Plant/Mom Beaux Mendes....Plein-Air-Painter Amanda Horowitz...Shepard Funded through a Foundation for Contemporary Art Emergency Grant special thanks to Kelsie Conley, Max Eilbacher, Gracie Scott, Miranda Friedman, Steph Zimmerman, Karinne Keithy Syers and Pelagic School participants. |
