PEABOHEMIA : TOGETHER WHATEVER
Created and Performed by Stephen Peabody
Directed and Choreographed by Vicky Virgin
May/June 2012 in New York City
A unique blend of theater, dance, music and media, PEABOHEMIA: TOGETHER
WHATEVER appears to unfold in a warehouse in the future, where a small
group of performers gathers to perform 75 minutes of eclectically
reconstituted yet emotionally resonant popular American songs, seemingly
for a worldwide internet audience in real time. Soundbites, scenarios
and movement vocabularies also play out in this other-worldly
environment which includes projected imagery, a lounge, a piano (behind
which Peabody, the evening's host, lurks and labors), apparently high
financial stakes, and an antique Edison record player. Bouncing over
borders between new & old, high & low, action & inaction, staged &
impromptu and recorded/live, PEABOHEMIA: TOGETHER WHATEVER is a carnival
of time, place and emotion, sounding off and dancing around questions of
nostalgia, technology, and the nexus of commerce and art.
