Phyllis Wattis Theater says…

Animator and puppeteer Martha Colburn's ability to successfully comment on the complexities, anomalies, and contradictions of our society stems from her own anxiety, outsider perspective, and downright amazing technical ability. Tonight, as part of her residency at SFMOMA, Colburn brings together legendary Half-Japanese founder Jad Fair, Deerhoof guitarist John Dietrich, pianist Thollem McDonas, and a cohort of New York collaborators — vocalist Haleh Abghari, noise artist Michael Evans, violist Laura Ortman, and drummer Ryan Sawyer — for an evening of multi-projector, manipulated film and improvised music.
