It's hard to imagine how Reid came to conceive of this complex idea initially, so I won't...but the outcome was brilliantly done and really worked on stage. Especially after seeing him hard at work at his computer for over a year (or so) while I was rehearsing for The Death of Evie Avery at his space, it was such a pleasure to watch it all happen live. Clearly a ton of work went into this project.
The concept is difficult to explain but after seeing the piece it is very clear that words are not so necessary since the experience will explain it all. These people are making a movie using some really excellent physical theater! It was as much of a magic show as it was a film and the theatrical experience put it all together like I've never seen before. I really enjoyed this work of art.
The making of is really interesting, watch it here.
Gin & "It" plays at Performance Space 122 only until this Sunday, May 9th. SEE IT.
