JP SHANLEY NYLON MASQUERADE

 

FUENTE OVEJUNA by LOPE DE VEGA

When the town of Fuente Ovejuna is brutalized by a tyrannical commander, it falls on the shoulders of a young woman to ignite a rebellion. Fuente Ovejuna ran from June 14th- July 3rd to sold out audiences. Nylon Fusion Collective had a very exciting season: The support shown to Nylon by Paul Haggis, John P Shanley and even Robert Zuckerman from the NYS Council of the Arts among many others was, and is, astounding. Thank you for supporting.

William Shakespeare's A MIDSUMMER NIGHT'S DREAM

In the summer of 2009 Nylon Fusion Collective performed a dynamic retelling of William Shakespeare's A MIDSUMMER NIGHT'S DREAM. Beginning in the spring the production was workshopped weekly with director Andy Goldberg (The Bomb-itty of Errors), choreographer Josie Bray, and various visiting industry professionals. From June 26 to August 9, thirteen site-specific performances took place in ten locations throughout Manhattan and Brooklyn. For this 90 minute production the 19 actors learned three or more roles, three new iPod playlists were created for each show's soundtrack, and the audience chose who the actors portrayed and what music they heard moments before the performance began. Some performances included live improvised jazz music and acoustic guitar. The opening weekend included tribute playlists to the late Michael Jackson. Each show was different and full of surprises!
