Performing Arts: Theatre Pablo Cano: Viva Vaudeville

  • Download_large

A Dadaist sensibility and a refined knowledge of bricolage inform Pablo Cano's inventive, found-object marionettes. For his new production — the tenth commissioned by MOCA — Cano resurrects the golden age of vaudeville. A velvet-curtained stage sets the scene for Cano's red devil made from a guitar, Chinese musicians with coffee-pot bodies, and a tightrope-walking butterfly built out of discarded plastic trays. The performance unwinds to a soundtrack of 1920s American pop tunes and two original pieces interpreted by a live band.
