Viewer discretion is advised. "Man...we love it when PushPush comes around. Outlandish. Always risky, in-depth & fearless." The Goat Farm Arts Center

******************************
THE HILLARY GAME is a partnership between PushPush and Padua Playwrights
Written for PushPush by Guy Zimmerman
Performed by PushPush Founders Tim Habeger and Shelby Hofer
******************************
On the production:
Playwright-director Guy Zimmerman (Padua Playwrights, Los Angeles) wrote THE HILLARY GAME to deepen an ongoing dialogue with Atlanta's PushPush Film & Theater about the impact of technology on human life in all its registers. Struck by a photograph in the Times of Hillary Clinton watching with dread as American troops stormed the Bin Laden compound, this PushPush-Padua collaboration investigates how theatre can shed light on the important issues underlying automatic processes like drone warfare.
As a follow-up to a successful 2013 project, THE BLACK GLASS, Padua hosted three residencies to develop THE HILLARY GAME, a 2nd co-creation together. The project has a 3-year plan including a public ramp-up to the 2016 election, both U.S. and international tours and numerous community engagements.
With sneak previews held at 7 Stages Theater and the Decatur Book Festival in September, THE HILLARY GAME will had its world premiere at The Goat Farm Arts Center Nov. 5-8 & Dec. 3-6, before kicking off a tour in Los Angeles at The Vortex December 19 & 20, 2014.
The Hillary Game is a Goat Farm AIP Recipient. The GF Arts Investment Package (AIP) vehicle funds, produces & presents experimental & innovative works that "pattern-break" & excite new thinking.
