Sandglass Theater's D-GENERATION to Play Town Hall Theater, 7/5-6
From playful story circles to dark private terror...
From lyrical inner visions to demanding confrontations...
From the reflections of caregivers to the fragmented memories of residents of care facilities...
Sandglass Theater's "D-Generation: An Exaltation of Larks," evokes a complex world of people living with dementia.
"D-Generation," performing at Middlebury's Town Hall Theater on July 5 & 6, is a full-length theater piece based on stories written collaboratively by groups of people with late-stage dementia. The work is performed by three puppeteers (the caregivers) and five puppets (the residents of a care-facility). Set to a compelling original score and striking animated video segments, D-Generation takes us into a world that is all too much a part of our lives.
Sandglass Theater, based in Putney, Vermont, is an internationally known theater company specializing in combining puppets with music, actors and visual imagery. Since 1982, the company's productions have toured 24 countries, performing in theaters, festivals and cultural institutions and winning numerous international prizes. Their national tour of "D-Generation" is made possible by a National Theater Project grant.
Sandglass Theater's D-Generation is presented at Middlebury's Town Hall Theater, July 5 at 8 pm and July 6 at 2 pm and 8 pm. Tickets, $20, are available by calling 802-382-9222, at www.townhalltheater.org, or at the box office Monday-Saturday, noon - 5:00 pm.
