Momentary Exchange

Saturday, April 15 (3:15-4:15) (7:15-8:15)

Seeler Studio Theatre














Leave your cellphone on for this unique theatre event. In this app-driven performance piece, you are invited to take a 50 minute journey - through memory, relationships, songs, and weather – as we take a road trip together. Audiences co-write the story in real time by using your phone and responding to prompts in real-time.
It’s going to be a wild ride.

Co-created and directed by Michole Biancosino, Assistant Professor of Theatre, with Visiting Artist, Todd Anderson, digital poet and technologist

This will be the first public performance of this piece, which was workshopped through a developmental residency at CultureHub, LaMaMa in New York City.
