FURY Factory 2011 Presents: Inkblot Ensemble & Inquire Within

FURY FACTORY PRESENTS A WORK-IN-PROGRESS DOUBLE-FEATURE!
(all works-in-progress feature a talk-back after the show)

INKBLOT ENSEMBLE - SATELLITES

Jupiter: god of storms, wielder of thunderbolts; insatiable, undeniable lover to any and all who caught His divine eye. Once embracing Io as a cloud, Ganymede with eagle's talons, Leda in the guise of a swan, Europa as a smooth white bull, now the god has vanished. Abandoned by their abductor, the lovers are still trapped in His gravitational pull. In a dreamlike expression of eternity, these discarded conquests ache to make sense of their endless orbit. When Jack, a modern man, crosses the threshold into their strange world, they become part of each other's past and discover startling truths about the future.

Satellites is inspired by the beauty of ancient stories woven into modern science, by the humanity of the immortal gods, and by the mysteries of the vast space that holds us all.

INQUIRE WITHIN - suggestions from correctionville

suggestions from correctionville pokes more than a little fun at our human proclivity to seek proof, or heap on commentaries from a distance rather than committing ourselves. Audience is invited to contribute responses to various characters throughout their struggles to commit to identity and action in the face of uncertainty. Sound artist Dave Defilippo joins director and writer, Lisa Leaverton, and performers of (inquire within) in this exploration of remoteness and presence, the struggle involved in our struggles, and the ease in our ease.
