Consumercreditcultureclash         Secondary Sources



Consumercreditcultureclash

Synopsis:
Is it possible for the theater to be truly topical? That's the inspiration for aMios' NYCycle series: writing plays in the here and now to serve as living, breathing history of New York in the moment. Here's the process: 4 times a year, 3 playwrights create 3 30-minute plays themed around an assigned month, set in New York City for a pre-selected cast. For this cycle, the plays must be set in September, October, and November 2010, include the quote "There are so many people from everywhere" and reflect the immediate future in relation to the theme "ConsumerCreditCultureClash." What does ConsumerCreditCultureClash mean? Why is it all squeezed together? I think it's the dominant anxiety in NY right now. With our country's economic health predicated by our ability to borrow money in small or large sums to fuel our consumer-based economy, people's lives are in a squeeze. It's redefining who we are. We'll see what the plays say, states artistic director Christian Haines.

Synopsis:
aMios's NYCycleseries, now in its fourth incarnation, is immediate theater. Three playwrights are given a task to write a 30-minute play in 30 days. The plays take place during a specific month, are set in New York, and follow certain parameters. For NYCYCLE 4: Secondary Sources, the plays are set in March, April, and May of this year. Using the theme Secondary Sources, the plays must include the quote "Is that what happened?" The playwrights were asked to find inspiration in Bob Dylan's "Talkin' World War III Blues" lyric "I'll let you be in my dreams if I can be in yours. . .I said that."
