Ghost Road Company To Premiere SUPER DUPER - Limited Engagement Immersive Experience in July

The Ghost Road Company will present the live, in-person World Premiere of Super Duper-originally presented as a virtual, interactive experience to sold out audiences in 2020 and 2021. Conceived and Directed by Ghost Road Artistic Director Katharine Noon, and created in workshop with Ghost Road, Super Duper invites participants into the world of a controversial artist where they will explore his work, his relationships, and his legacy. Set to open Saturday, July 15, 2023, 8PM at the Los Angeles Theatre Center, this extremely limited engagement runs for 10 performances only: July 15-19 and July 22-26.

Through an experience that is both solitary and communal, Super Duper asks where the truth resides in a world that defines itself by manufactured personae. While both observing and personally participating in this journey, the audience experiences the perspectives of various individuals exploring a pivotal and complex relationship they all shared. This immersive piece is an exploration in creating community by exploring connections amongst members of an audience and between audiences and performers. The framework of the piece is an exploration of the nature of artistic creation and how an audience is an integral and intentional part of the artist's vision in addition to being the "experiencer" of the work.

The cast features (in alphabetical order) Zachary Bones, Christine Breihan, Alan Corvaia, Ronnie Clark, John Guerra, Jen Kays, Camila Rozo, and Brian Weir. Also performing are Rachel DeBoer, Siki Lonner, Sam Pribyl, Skyler Reyes, Camila Robles Ruiz, and Salve Villarosa. The production team includes Scenic Designer David Offner, Lighting Designer Brandon Baruch, Sound Designer Cricket Myers, Costume Designer Vicki Conrad, Prop Designer Cate Chapman, Stage Manager Sarah Costigan, Social Media Director Adam Dlugolecki, Intimacy Coordinator Carly DW Bones, Technical Director Aaron Lyons, and Mark Seldis, producer for The Ghost Road Company.

Super Duper was devised in workshop by Christine Breihan, Ronnie Clark, Adam Dlugolecki, Ray Ford, Kim Glann, John Guerra, Jen Kays, Katharine Noon, Mark Seldis, and Brian Weir.
