About the Event
Beacon is a live performance of table-top puppetry, objects and mechanisms that explore light, shadow, and early
animation effects. As part of our New Work in the North Country imitative, local artist Andrew Murdock will be doing a short residency at the Lounge developing this exciting new work. On March 15th we'll present a showing of the work in progress, which will likely manifest as part gallery exhibition, part live performance.
Andrew Murdock (he/they) is a designer, director and performer. No stranger to the Lounge, Andrew has designed our productions of Hotdish, The Woman in Black, Monarch Report, and Tragedy, a tragedy. He is currently the studio arts instructor at North Country School. His work often bridges the tangible and digital by utilizing techniques in video, animation, physical theatre and puppetry. He holds a BFA dual major in Sculpture and Film, Animation, Video (FAV) from RISD and an MFA in Theatre from Sarah Lawrence College. His work has been seen at New Ohio, HERE, La MaMa, The Center at West Park, St. Ann’s Warehouse, The Brick and The Japan Society. Recent credits include: Set and Sound Design for Hotish directed by Gabrielle Schutz (UJAC, Upper Jay, NY), Puppeteer for Small Acts of Darinng Invention Directed by Kris Thor and Written/Performed by Tracy Weeler (HERE Arts, NYC), Video Design for Day Dream Tutorial created by Maiko Kikuchi (La Mama Puppet Festival 2023, NYC).
