PUPPETRY, PROJECTION, AND POP MUSIC COMBINE IN FELICIA COOPER’S NEW ADAPTATION OF BUCHNER’S WOYZECK
PLEASE! is a high intensity and humorous trip through expressionism and indie sleaze, exploring the depths of surveillance, desire, power and who holds it. PLEASE! was created in collaborations with Lizz Windnagel, Sam Weisberg, Alice Endo, Davey Steinman, and LIPING VONG, with original music by Lisa Frank.
Felicia Cooper is an artist working in puppetry, performance and embodied research. Her work has been seen at LaMama Theater's Puppet Festival, the Chicago International Puppet Theater Festival, Dixon Place, and locally in the Twin Cities. It has been supported by the Tri M Foundation, The National Humanities Center, the Connecticut Sea Grant, the Heinz Foundation, the Minnesota State Arts Board, the Pennsylvania State Arts Board, and others. She makes work embedded in community and creates platforms for others to create experimental work, including the Puppet Union and her work with the Minnesota Fringe Festival, where she serves as the Director of Audience and Volunteer Engagement. She holds an MFA in Puppetry from the University of Connecticut. Go Huskies.
PLEASE! is part of COMMFEST, a micro-festival of experimental performance running February 6-8 at the Bryant Lake Bowl, presented by Commutator Collective, an interdisciplinary arts group based in Minneapolis. Check out the rest of the weekend’s shows at commfest.net
This activity is made possible by the voters of Minnesota through a grant from the Metropolitan Regional Arts Council, thanks to a legislative appropriation from the arts and cultural heritage fund.
Tickets are $15 in Advance / $10 - $20 Sliding Scale at the Door. Doors open at 9:30pm.
Our full restaurant and bar service is available in the theater! Order from your seat and enjoy the show, we'll take care of the rest.
