Triskelion Arts is pleased to present a shared program of new work by The Raving Jaynes and Jeff Seal this November in the Muriel Schulman Theater.
Truth is relative, sure, but as far as he’s concerned Jeff Seal has got this sh*t figured out. If you’re a fan of one-man shows and downtown theater in general, that’s your problem, not his. If you’re a fan of having the truth rammed down your g-d damn face, then you’re in luck! He will not give his audience the same two-bit horsesh*t advice they can get from any self-help book; he’s here to give you the %!@?!ing truth. Mixing standup, storytelling, characters, and clowning, Jeff’s new show might not be any good but he promises that you’ll be a little less full of sh*t by the time its over. And, quite possibly, it could change the way you think about your entire life.
The Raving Jaynes combine dance and improv to create highly physical, spontaneous pieces of dance/theater. Nothing is choreographed, nothing is scripted! Characters, settings, atmospheres and abstract imagery emerge from the simple seeds of skillful movement. Two unique personas go on a journey that gradually reveals itself amidst a collage of scenes and dances. The dancers become actors and back again, transforming dialogue into movement and movement into dialogue. The sacred and (more often) profane, natural and fantastic, flawed, ridiculous and ever-hopeful mingle in a field of imagination and play. Amazing improviser and violist, Richard Kim, brings music to the mix! "To call The Raving Jaynes a unique blend of dance and improvisation would be an insufficient description; for they have truly wed the two art forms into one." - Improvisation News
