Radical Epiphanies: A Series of Interdisciplinary Temporal Dislocations
Enie Macy & the 10 Step Program
11/5/99 to 11/13/99
Fri/Sat, Nov. 5, 6, 12 and 13
Enie Macy & the 10 Step Program is an interdisciplinary sci-fi epic incorporating dance, theatrical elements, live video, original music and animatronics. Enie Macy features a myriad of slightly perverse characters, each a portal to revelations concerning our time, culture, and approach to intimacy. The performance follows the haphazard bumbling of its heroine, the neurotic, sexually disoriented Enie, who undergoes radical epiphanies in conjunction with apocalyptic change. On her way she encounters Tarnsby, the ´average joe´ whose zenlike ´program´ of ten steps gradually becomes a quasi-Scientological religion hardwired into all human thought forever; Future boy, a preteen visionary obsessed with hard boiled eggs; The Placid Couple, mall-bound lovers who subtly digest the audience in enzymatic apathy; and the hive-minded culture of ´Gold-Noses´ who have distorted both physics and human cognition to create and eternal ´focus time´ where memory is power and tuth is a non-subject. Written and performed by: Kristin Lemberg, Rajendra Serber, Bulk Foodveyor and Cheryl Leonard.

Enie Macy was recently nominated for two Isadora Duncan Awards (1998), screened by The Kitchen (NY) at the Berlin Video Festival Transmedial (1999) and at the Art Academy in Bulgaria.
