Once every two years, the FURY Factory Festival reconvenes for an electrifying gathering of ensemble and devised theater makers from around the country and beyond. Events include performances of stellar new works, a works-in-progress series, workshops, multidisciplinary panels and conversations, and countless opportunities to rub elbows and cross-pollinate with artists and audiences members alike.
This year's festival presents eight main stage shows - including three Bay Area premieres, two West Coast premieres and two world premieres - and 14 works-in-progress. Packed into two weeks, the festival will occupy the Mission district's Project Artaud arts complex comprising Z Below, the Joe Goode Annex (at 401 Alabama Street) and Theatre of Yugen's NOHspace (at 2840 Mariposa Street).
The following ensembles will make their FURY Factory debut: Green T Productions, Poor Dog Group, Sokeo Ros and UMO Ensemble. Returning artists include Bandelion, Deborah Slater Dance Theater, Hand2Mouth and The Independent Eye.
These main stage groups represent the metropolitan areas of San Francisco, Los Angeles, Minneapolis, Portland, Seattle and Providence, Rhode Island. Among the works on view will be plays drawing inspiration from literature (Shakespeare and Beckett, to name two) performance with hand-made puppets experiments with clowning technique informed by Grotowski, Viewpoints and LeCoq performance interested in tackling complex social issues and solo works created within an ensemble context.
FURY Factory's "Raw Materials" works-in-progress series features 13th Floor, Bird on a Wire, Critical Point, foolsFURY, Humdinger, Metzmecatl-Moon Rope, NAKA, Rapid Descent, Square Peg, Theater Novi Most, Uplift Physical Theater and Waypoints.
