Running Scared: The Technology Show
This fall, a small group of us Collectin kids co-created a script together called "Running Scared: The Technology Show."
The show will take place on Thursday 12/9 through Saturday 12/11, at 8pm, at Center Stage, NY. The theater is located at 48 21st Street, 4th Floor, between 5th and 6th Avenues in the Flatiron District.
The piece is made up of vignettes related to modern technology, and the effects it has on our relationships to others, and the world around us. As perhaps the last generation to have grown up with pen in hand, we mark an interesting transition point - full of fear, hope, confusion, and abuse. It is important to check in honestly and ask what effects being plugged into these gadgets are having on us.
We built this script from scratch together, from the ground up. To create the show, each cast member pitched their initial ideas and questions to the table, and we discussed them as a group. Each member then developed them on their own and brought them to the group for critique. We've boiled down our material to the cream of the crop, putting final touches on the pieces on the page as we rehearse and "stitch" these pieces together with sound-scape, technical elements, and narrative transitions, into a whole.
