Description
Antenna Theater of Sausalito, California is a non-profit arts organization which creates original work in many disciplines. Artistic Director Chris Hardman founded Antenna in 1980 to experiment with the essential dynamics of sound, sculpture and live performance. Antenna has brought its unique combination of sound, image, and movement to adventurous San Francisco Bay Area audiences in the most surprising of settings: a moving bus, recycling centers, high school corridors, Army barracks, the desert playa of Burning Man, and the Pacific Ocean's edge. Vacuum was the first show Antenna ever produced. Video by Demystavision. Videographers Bill Bathurst, Ron Blanchette, Jed Handler. Presentation of Antenna Theatre's "Amnesia", written and directed by Chris Hardman. "Four different memory paths are chosen in random order as each audient struggles to regain their sense of self. The interactive sets are created entirely of slotted wood pieces, highly colored. Masked actors assist the audient through this swirl of pattern."
