2010-11 Season of Target Margin Theater Announced

 


| | More


The 20th anniversary season for the Target Margin Theater was announced earlier today, with works by Shakespeare, Mozart and an all new performance created by the company.

According to Artistic Director David Herskovits, “In our 20th year, we offer a brain scan of the mind of Target Margin Theater. TMT is always imagining new theatrical experiences; now we step back to survey all the different kinds of creation we have on the brain. Each production explores a different aspect of the universe TMT has built. Consider this a crash course in what we have spent the last 20 years striving to accomplish.”

Here’s what on the schedule for the 2010-11 season:

The Target Margin Laboratory
November 4-20, 2010
Presented by The Brick (Williamsburg, Brooklyn)

Veteran and neophyte Target Margin artists come together to study the pathological history of this downtown institution, investigating the varied interests that define the character of TMT. In rotating rep, the productions in the TMT LAB include the classic avant-garde ply The Yellow Sound by Wassily Kandinsky, an experimental theater piece originated by the Russian artist in 1909; The Magic Flute (A Sound-Op Era) adapted from the opera by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart; and the early American play, The Moth and the Flame by Clyde Fitch, written at the turn of the 20th Century.

Second Language
February/March 2011
The Chocolate Factory (Long Island City)

Second Language negotiates the margins of communication. TMT’s new project brings professional actors and designers together with students from LaGuardia Community College (LAGCC) in Long Island City to create an original play about how we talk to each other, how we read each other, and how we fail to communicate. Second Language is in partnership with LaGuardia Performing Arts Center (LPAC) and The Chocolate Factory.

The Tempest
May 2011
HERE (NYC)

Target Margin Theater’s 20th Anniversary production brings them back to their Shakespearean roots with a rich and strange production performed by the company that will challenge perceived notions of performing Shakespeare.
