Description:
Audition Notice – Rogue Artists Ensemble’s
‘The Tragical Comedy, or Comical Tragedy of Mr. Punch’ Equity-waver.
Bootleg Theater July 11 – August 31
Adapted from the best-selling graphic novel by Neil Gaiman and Dave McKean, Mr. Punch is a dark fable in which the innocence of childhood and the pain of adulthood collide in the oft-fragmented recesses of memory. The man's memories of his boyhood at his grandfather's seaside arcade are full of talking badgers, crocodiles, car accidents, mermaids, and murder...or could that just have been the Punch and Judy show?
Variety Magazine called Mr. Punch “…a feast for the senses."
“...triumphantly mixes traditional puppeteering, shadow puppets, masks, video projections and more into a thriving whole.” -- Backstage West
WHO: Based on the graphic novel by author Neil Gaiman and illustrator Dave McKean(Gaiman wrote the screenplay for the recent film Beowolf, Gaiman and McKean worked together to create The Sandman comics ,Henson Pictures' MIRRORMASK and the upcoming film adaptation of their book Coraline)
