Parallelogramophonograph is doing something insane tonight! Jon Bolden has King-For-A-Night status at The Spectacle at 10pm at The Hideout Theatre (due to a generous donation to our Edinburgh Kickstarter last year) and he wants us to mash-up two of our VERY different formats into one show: French Farce and ERIS 2035!
French Farce is an exploration of the latent comedy in social status. Infidelity, insecurity, and insatiable appetites for wealth and power collide with riveting consequences. No topic is taboo; No neurosis too absurd.
Rich in physical humor and word play, French Farce is a delight to watch. We turn a blank stage into a French salon, a blank script into sharp social commentary, and “improv comedy” into “théâtre improvisé”.
Inspired by films such as 2001, Moon, and Solaris, Eris 2035 explores the effects the desolation and stillness of deep space have on the human psyche. Quiet madness and slow-burning tension underscore this improvised production, reminiscent of classic science fiction of the 60′s and 70′s.
I can pretty much guarantee we will only be doing this combination ONE TIME ONLY! SPACE FARCE!
