Between Trains
Gas & Electric Arts
Theater, 90 minutes
What if you woke up naked in a train station, someplace yet nowhere, on the edge between waiting and anticipation, goodbyes and opportunity? Welcome to the Bardo. Join our ensemble of fiercely physical performers as they guide you through the multi-sensory realms of possibility in this world premiere musical travelogue.
Gas & Electric Arts was founded in 2005 to lead audiences to experiences that shimmer with theatricality and shiver with social reality. At Gas & Electric Arts, the ordinary and the extraordinary fluidly mingle. In their productions, they strive to make the invisible visible through provocative, evocative physicality, vocal exploration and unique scenography that embraces and explores the plasticity of bodies, voices, objects and light, cut out in theatrical space and time, thus creating an entirely new theatrical universe. Gas & Electric Arts’ intrepid performance style is an athletic task for the actors’ bodies, voices, imagination, heart and senses. Their intensely physical, choreographic approach to acting leaves quotidian expression behind as the actors devise vivid forms for their bodies so that thought becomes a physical activity. Through our productions, we are instrumental in introducing Philadelphia to exemplary, nationally-recognized playwrights who are boldly redefining American theatre. www.GasAndElectricArts.org
