Through the use of projection, masks, puppetry, dance, and music, Rogue Artists Ensemble redefines the traditional theatre company. The collective's latest endeavor, Gogol Project, features three short stories by 19th century Russian novelist and playwright Nikolai Gogol: Diary of a Madman, The Overcoat, and The Nose. Adapted by playwright and journalist Kitty Felde, the mesmerizing "hyper-theatrical" production includes a quirky original score by Ego Plum, who provides a haunting soundtrack to a world where postmen are made from postcards, dogs sing and dance, and "a nose the size of a bear" wins the hearts of a Russian village. Through it all, the expert cast and crew effectively push the boundaries of conventional theatre.
