Rogue Artists Ensemble seeks Submissions For Hyperbole: Origins

Rogue Artists Ensemble, an award-winning collective of multi-disciplinary artists who create Hyper-theater, an innovative hybrid of theater, puppetry, masks, dance, music and modern technology, seeks contributions of original music and art to be incorporated into a new performance event titled HYPERBOLE: origins, scheduled to premiere in Los Angeles in September, 2010.

HYPERBOLE: origins is an original, adventurous celebration of myth, music, movement, and mania, all inspired by stories of creation. Resembling a collection of music videos performed live onstage, HYPERBOLE: origins will play out as a torrent of short scenes set to and inspired by music and visual art collected from contemporary musicians and artists.

HYPERBOLE:origins is being developed in part through a collaboration with the University of California Claire Trevor School of the Arts and is funded in part by a grant from the Los Angeles Department of Cultural Affairs. Workshop performances are being scheduled at UC Irvine and during the first annual Hollywood Fringe Festival.
