TORONTO, October 24, 2012...The Theatre Lab is pleased to announce their upcoming production of THE OTHER HOUDINI, opening at Unit 102 Studio Theatre on Thursday November 29, 2012. THE OTHER HOUDINI is a devised creation conceived by Robert Feetham (Four Corners, Theatre Passe Muraille). The creative team consists of Lisa Marie DiLiberto (The Tale of a Town, Theatre Passe Muraille/Fixt Point), Viktor Lukawski (The Double, TheatreRUN), Jenna Mariash (Twelfth Night, Canopy Theatre), and Dora Award winner Adam Paolozza (SPENT, Theatre Smith-Glimour / TheatreRUN / Why Not Theatre) with Musical Direction by Cameron Michael Murray (Hey! Death?, Art of the Problem) and stage management by Geoffrey Armour.
THE OTHER HOUDINI is a one-man show created and performed by Robert Feetham. This workshop production examines the life and exploits of Harry Houdini, world famous escape artist, and asks the question, 'What if Houdini wasn't so great, what if he was a failure?' In this project Robert and the creative team will remove Houdini from the equation and replace him with a hopelessly clumsy idiot - who just can't help getting bound and shackled. Our hero attempts four great escapes. Four escapes seen by four directors.
Theatre Lab resident artist, Robert Feetham, took a unique approach when working on our seventh production. The creative team and Robert worked together to create four interwoven stories, featuring four great escapes loosely based on Harry Houdini's exploits. Robert and the directors, who trained at Lecole Lecoq and Gaulier, explored using Clown as well as original live music from Cameron Michael Murray
We are five weeks away from opening our seventh production, THE OTHER HOUDINI, and we are thrilled to be presenting this piece to our community.
