The Orange Terror Cycle - Over the last 4 years, Tank Associate Artist Kev Berry has been writing a monologue a month for The Tank's "Fast & Furious" series, creating what he called The Orange Terror Cycle. In November 2018, right after the midterm elections, he and 3 others performed the first 20 of them. And now, on the eve of the inauguration of the 46th President of the United States, Berry will log on to YouTube and perform all 46 monologues in one sitting, at his desk in Washington Heights. He'd rather be performing it in person, but the 45th President of the United States mishandled a pandemic, so his bedroom has become his stage. In a durational performance spanning the night and the last 4 years, The Orange Terror Cycle is an exploration of what it means to crave hope when there's nothing but hopelessness as far as the eye can see, to eulogize a dying nation, and to look for even the smallest glimmer of light in the dark. click here
