Novelty Shots: A Political Fantasy

Join us for the 3rd weekend of Red Eye's New Works 4 Weeks festival... In their new evening-length work, performance duo Fire Drill takes the truism that "the internet is rewiring our brains" as both paranoia and reality. Novelty Shots: A Political Fantasy catapults the viewer between focus and distraction, capitalizing on our collective desire for constant stimulation. Using rigorous exploration of form, daring physicality, and an uncompromisingly contemporary aesthetic, Novelty Shots activates and interrogates the attention economy. Fire Drill is the Minneapolis-based collaboration of Emily Gastineau and Billy Mullaney. They create performance works that challenge contemporary notions of spectatorship and engagement. http://fire-drill.org/ Performance Schedule Thursday, June 11, 8pm, pay-as-able Friday, June 12, 8pm, $15 ($8), reception following show Saturday, June 13, 8pm, $15 ($8) Sunday, June 14, 7pm, $12 ($8) ( ) Student ticket price
