The
Anatomy Collective

 Following the Contemporary Authors and the
Artistic Process panel event, theater group The Anatomy Collective (TAC)
will have about three weeks to develop an exclusive puppet show
that blends the tracings, clippings, ephemera and writing generated
and collected by Darger with the book collectively created by
attendees of CUL's panel. The resultant performance will showcase
TAC's talents and resourcefulness in a whimsical epic that
re-interprets Darger's (home) life and (studio) work and the
readers and viewers it continues to inspire.
Admission: Donations
accepted.
