Hover

My first full length production, Hover was an abstract visual theater piece about a boy and his father. For a weekend or two, this took place in my garage in Providence, which I nicknamed Performance Space Garage 59 Keene Street (PSG59). Part of Lowry Marshall’s solo performance class at Brown, and directed by Peter Nachtrieb, this served as my final project and my thesis for the sculpture department at RISD. The story uses the disaster of Chernobyl as a backdrop for this personal tale of loss, acceptance, and understanding. It also features me in a fat suit, a fake Soyuz capsule, and Karishnikov, the Space Cosmonaut, whose slogan is “May the skies always be high above you”.
