I just came across this profile of The Neo-Futurists in Gozamos (“A Spotlight on Chicago Community and Culture”). As you may or may not remember, The Neo-Futurists produce the long-running play “Too Much Light Makes the Baby Go Blind”, which appeared at Midwest FurFest last year. There’s a great quote from Kurt Chiang, who was part of the ensemble for that performance:
What has been your favorite Neo-Futurist moment? I really enjoyed performing TML at the 10th annual Midwestern Furfest last summer. Those people were so kind and welcoming to us in their very specialized culture/geekdom (and I use “geek” in the a complimentary sense). They also dug the choatic dynamic of the show right away, which is rare for people who see the show for the first time.
(Summer, winter…whichever. At least they had a good time!)
Well when you’re doing what you love I imagine time and the seasons start to run together. 🙂
It was a really fun show, especially since they let me play with blocks lol.
That was a fantastic show and the Neo-Futurists immediately connected with the MFF audience and vice versa. Glad to know they enjoyed us as much as we enjoyed them!
Summer winter.. LOL.. MFF is in Autumn.
awww. I wish I had seen it. 🙁
