[WORLD PREMIERE] THE CHOCOLATE FACTORY THEATER PRESENTS

Stephanie Acosta Good Day God Damn

March 19-28, 2020 ; Thursdays - Saturdays at 8pm

The Chocolate Factory Theater5-49 49th Avenue, LIC NY 11101

In a multi-frame assemblage of video projection, the cinematic lens, and the theatrical frame, the performers of Good Day God Damn - four dancers, an opera singer, and an ill fated screeching director - move as an organic sentient mass through multiple atmospheres and states, exploring ideas of the cinematic thriller and extraterrestrial hope in an attempt to disassemble, rebuild, and hold onto the very notion of survival in an absurd multi-crisis reality, asking: what does it mean to get through it? Dissonant sounds and images give way to choral moments in a darkly thrilling and dynamic disarray.Created and directed by Stephanie Acosta.

Performers: Leslie Cuyjet, Miriam Gabriel, Angie Pittman, and Jessie Young. Sound and vocals: Alexa Grae. Lighting Design: Shana Crawford. Projection Mapping: Ryan Holsopple.Good Day God Damn began its development as part of a Creative Residency at The Chocolate Factory Theater in September 2018, curated by Blaze Ferrer.
