To whom it may concern. We have been the victim of a chain letter. Despite our expertise in communication: from telegram to Twitter, Morse-Code to MySpace, the demands of this letter seem unachievable. We need to find a new method of communication. blueDragonfly present a piece of devised theatre that explores communication: over-communication, redundant communication, hoping to find a way of speaking that is new. We will mis-send, mis-receive, mis-interpret… and miss meaning.

Everyone’s family has problems and this group is no Brady Bunch. With every crazy family member stuck in the same room, things are sure to get a little tense. In a darkly comedic attempt to redefine “nuclear family,” Trey’s family’s must figure out how to handle each other’s differences – before the always-flammable drunk Uncle Ron catches fire and the whole thing explodes!

Welcome, Visitor – come inside. This is Dimension 317, a division of the Zoetropic Galaxy. While solar quakes foretell the coming Vortex, we prepare. Our world is not (or is it?) like yours. Masses suffer from Dimnesia – a condition that suppresses a once vibrant society into joyless dystopia. Beware the void – it seeks suppression. Here, we practice deep sensational sensing of the senses. Come. Learn. Revel in a taste like no other. It is the only way. We need you. Igniting salt, light and sense – help us – help us to survive the storm.

CFF13: VIOLENT AS BIRTH DRAMATIC AS DEATH

VIOLENT AS BIRTH DRAMATIC AS DEATH depicts the internal violence and drama that occurs when one questions stereotyping, impatience, gender complexities, the nature of living, sacrifice and the value of one’s artistry. Through the use of 1950’s educational films we witness that some of the same social norms presented in these films still exist in today’s culture. Freedom from these conditioned ways is the core of this performance art piece and is expressed through the use of film, Shakespeare monologues, original poetry and choreography. This is a protest…and my story.

Cincinnati’s True Theatre, now in its third season, continues to sell out every one of their onenight- only shows, advertising only ‘true stories told by real people’ and a theme. Each of their shows (including trueFEAR, trueFOOLISHNESS, trueHUNGER, and trueLOVE) have drawn storytellers from all walks of life. For the past two years, True Theatre joined the Festival with trueFRINGE, featuring only storytellers associated with the Festival. Back with the same idea, trueFRINGE (“3”) features 5 storytellers (all artists part of the 2013 festival) sharing true, personal stories that will give you that behind-the-scenes look at life in-and-around the theatre that will make you laugh, cry, and shake your head*. Don’t miss the chance to make your Fringe experience complete with this ONE NIGHT ONLY show! (*Laughing, crying, and head-shaking guaranteed).
