Two major bits of news on the ZU front. One, the next music video “Floormatted” (under the direction of Aaron Martwick) is ready for release. Go to the show page to watch and expect a video premiere party soon.
In other news, due to staging and probable casting constraints, Shakespeare’s “The Taming of the Shrew” will be changed to the avant garde staging of “The Rape of Lucrece” (also by Shakespeare). Dates are still pending on this project.
The experimental firebreathing show, “Flight of the Fireflies” will have the second half of its performance on February 18, 2011.
The first half, called “Take Off / The Migration” is themed around insect migration patterns. That performance occurred on October 28, 2010. The second phase, “Exit Diapause”, will be performed February 18 at the GATO Convention (video game, anime and comic book convention). The term “diapause” is defined as the time inwhich insects go into hibernation, before their return migration.
Time of performance is pending.
