Tesla theatrical play in TX



Original poster: "Chris Brick by way of Terry Fritz <teslalist-at-qwest-dot-net>" <cbrick-at-rebelbase-dot-com>

Some friends in Austin, TX mentioned they are going to this:

Rude Mechanicals is proud to bring back REQUIEM FOR TESLA - a
semi-biographical, sci-fi homage to Nikola Tesla, a genius inventor who
loved pigeons, hated spherical objects and was undoubtedly one of the
most fascinating and controversial figures of all time. REQUIEM FOR
TESLA is an ecstatic and evocative tribute to the man who gave us
alternating current and dreamed of spaceships in a time when even
electricity was dangerous magic. Tesla’s impassioned efforts to improve
the quality of life for humankind left him straddling a line between
genius and insanity. Rude Mechs’ high-voltage stage-collage honoring the
genius/madman fuses period electronics, frenetic subconscious
hallucinations, and a demonic Mark Twain. Death rays,music by The Golden
Arm Trio and a spine-tingling Tesla coil all combust in this sci-fi
electromagnetic polyphase dynamo play.

I thought I'd post it in case there are others in the area that would
like to go.

Cheers,
