DISPOSABLE MEN

February – March, 2005 (Here Arts Center; New York, NY)

Assistant Director: Niegel Smith

Directed by Kristen Marting, Written & Performed by James Scruggs

King Kong, African American men, and Frankenstein collide in humor-laced tales about theme restaurants featuring mutilation with dessert, and party motivators with major minstrel twists. Disposable Men is a richly interactive live multimedia performance. It explores the uncanny relationship that African American men and classic Hollywood monsters share . . . the unfounded fear of, and the imaginative ways that they are killed.
