Currently under a stay-at-home order inside his apartment located a 4 km walk from the Embassy of Australia in the United States, American performance artist Brian Feldman has wanted to be part of the Adelaide Fringe (the largest open access arts festival in the Southern Hemisphere) for over a decade. It only took a global pandemic to finally make it happen. As part of FringeVIEW, Adelaide Fringe's answer to the coronavirus crisis, Brian brings the online version of one of his signature projects to the new virtual stage of the second-largest annual arts festival in the world. The best show you'll write all year, '#txtshow (on the internet)' is a completely interactive two screen performance, featuring a mysterious character named txt (pronounced "text"), who recites dialogue written anonymously in real-time by a live audience (on the internet). Created and performed by Brian Feldman, this LIVE, interactive performance takes place on Zoom. Content warnings: MA15+: Based entirely upon what audience members write in anonymity, this event may contain mature themes, profane language, and explicit sexual content.

Cast and Creative team for #txtshow (on the internet) at Adelaide FringeVIEW

Brian Feldman (Concept/Performer) is an award-winning performance artist and actor. He lives in Washington, D.C., 4 km from the Embassy of Australia, and, as DCist noted, "In a city that has an advocacy group exploring how to "make D.C. weird" – and is still struggling – Brian Feldman is a shining beacon of eccentricity." Brian's work has been favorably compared to Marina Abramovic, David Blaine, John Cage, Marcel Duchamp, Tehching Hsieh, and Andy Kaufman, and garnered worldwide media coverage on television, radio, in print, and online. Since 2003, he has presented 300+ performances of 125+ projects at 175+ venues and festivals through Brian Feldman Projects, one of North America's premiere presenters of experimental, time-based art. This is Brian's first-ever performance in Australia.

 

Genny Yosco (Screen Manager) has loved theater since she was a child, and it's been a steady decline into madness ever since. Since 2014, she has produced and directed 34 productions in New York, 26 of which have been originals that she has written. She also is the creator and director of two monthly shows – 'SILENT BUT DEADLY: A Mime Experience,' in which she also plays Blue; and 'CHEMICAL X: The Powerpuff Girls Improv Show,' where she portrays Bubbles and various others. On top of all of this, her company Sour Grapes Productions has been a resident company of FRIGID New York since 2018. When she's not over-exerting herself with theater, she's doing about the same with her short film projects.
