Phil Soltanoff: L.A. PARTY and AN EVENING WITH WILLIAM SHATNER ASTERISK
Phil Soltanoff closes out the festival with two of his distinctive new media theatrical works, L.A. PARTY and AN EVENING WITH WILLIAM SHATNER ASTERISK. Soltanoff, an award-winning director, challenges familiar forms, build links among seemingly incompatible media and materials, and employs new technologies in surprising and human ways.
In L.A. PARTY, a fanatical vegan falls off the purity wagon one night, plunging head first into a wild, drug-induced bender in the City of Angels. Six performers take the stage to produce a compelling composite human being recounting this hilarious short story by David Barlow, mixed with live video.
AN EVENING WITH WILLIAM SHATNER ASTERISK meticulously catalogues and remixes everything William Shatner said on the original Star Trek series. Phil Soltanoff with Joe Diebes (writer) and Rob Ramirez (systems designer) create a dynamic video oracle of the lead commander on the USS Enterprise expanding our universe on contemporary arts and science as only Captain Kirk can.
