Accursed Items, The
Synopsis:
The accursed Items uses, as narration, a text of the same name by acclaimed author J. Robert Lennon which illuminates the history and lingering psychic life of broken, misused and discarded objects-trash. To create the content of the show-the dances and dialogue-andrew Dinwiddie turned to a particular kind of accursed Item: deleted scenes and rehearsal videos from never-used and drastically reworked dances. He asked other dance and theater makers to donate rehearsal videos of material they had created but never used in a show, or from so early in a process that the taped material would be unrecognizable from the final product. additionally, andrew plundered the Deleted Scenes of DVDs for material that was left on the cutting room floor. With his cast, andrew disemboweled and reanimated these lost dances and scenes into a new work of dance theater. alternately austere and rambunctious, The accursed Items draws from material that wasn't quite good enough for The Wooster Group, Richard Foreman, Big Dance Theater, Metallica, Stacy Dawson, Faye Driscoll, Levi Gonzalez and others

Get Mad At Sin!
Synopsis:
Get Mad at Sin! is a one-man performance reanimating a historical document: an out-of-print vinyl record of a sermon by the evangelist Jimmy Swaggart recorded live at the First assembly of God in Van Buren, arkansas circa 1971. Get Mad at Sin! strives to achieve perfect audio fidelity to the original record while reincarnating Jimmy Swaggart's carpet-pacing, pulpit-pounding performance. The result is a complicated portrait of Swaggart in his prime-legendary Pentecostal preacher, pioneer of radio and televangelism, fiery rhetorician, best selling gospel artist of all time, and first cousin of rock-and-roller Jerry Lee Lewis-before he reached the height of his fame and imploded in 1988.
