Nobody Try To Be A Hero (2005)

created by Ursula Eagly in collaboration with the performers

starring Rebecca Davis, Ursula Eagly, Abby Harris, and Jessica Morgan

Audience/performer = hostage/captor.  Cold spaghetti “guts” and peeled grape “eyeballs.”  Interrogation.  The Moscow Theater Hostage Crisis.  Premiered shortly after the Abu Ghraib scandal.  The audience screamed at every performance.  (25 minutes)

This piece was developed from a short work commissioned by the Howl Festival and through a work-in-progress residency at The Chocolate Factory.
