Reckonnoiter Fall 2015
paper chairs kicks off the fall with "Reckonnoiter," a series dedicated to developing new work.
Join us Sundays October 18th, October 25th, & November 8th. Using the fall as a time to incubate and explore with a variety of generative practices, paper chairs offers three unique showings of works-in-progress. By sharing works at different stages of development, we aim to take risks in new territories and invite our audiences to participate in our creative process.
All "Reckonnoiter" events are approximately 1 hour long. $5-10 suggested donation (Concessions available!) Limited seating - Grab tickets at the door or online.

"Reckonnoiter" Event Schedule & Locations:
Oct. 18th 5pm Salvage Vanguard Theatre (lobby) 2803 Manor Rd. 78722 Inklings: a night of short pieces
Experiments in Movement and Sound: I-III Choreography by April Perez Moore Sound Design by Jesse Moore Performers: Susan Peterson, April Perez Moore, Misa Soliz Three one-woman dance solos, set to soundscapes of silence, breath, humming, singing and music. Character studies explored by the mediums of movement and sound.
Baby Shower Directed by: Kelli Bland An experimental work about the thoughts and emotions surrounding the debate on the contentious decision to give birth to a child or remain childless.
Falconry Directed by Lisa Laratta Performed by Jorge Sermini A young man grapples with duty, pride, passion and an American Eagle. A short adaptation of a few chapters of Saul Bellow's novel The Adventures of Augie March.
Oct. 25th 5pm Salvage Vanguard Theatre (lobby) 2803 Manor Rd. 78722 Poor Herman Written by: Elizabeth Doss A new play in development that asks how Herman Melville wrote two epic novels, Moby Dick and Pierre or the Ambiguities, in two short years. Though both were flops in his time, Moby Dick was later championed as a great American novel while even the most devoted scholars continue to shun Pierre. Through play, opera, dance, lecture, and museum tour, Poor Herman will investigate the fallout of Moby Dick and the ever-thin line between utter genius and epic failure.
