Shoot, Don't Talk

Using live-feed cameras, puppetry, and miniatures, this ensemble-generated work creates and deconstructs a Western film set live on stage. Influenced by source material from the making of the film, The Good, The Bad and The Ugly, this theatre/media hybrid investigates representation in film and our current relationship to the frontier mythos.

Directed and Conceived by Andrew Murdock / Created by the ensemble

Featuring Leonie Bell, Yudam, Zixin Liu, Sifiso Mabena, Marcella Murray and Leah Ogawa

Performed at Sarah Lawrence College (Bronxville, NY) 2018 and Puppet Lab at St Anns Warehouse (Brooklyn, NY) 2019
