Details
Bruce Delamitri, the leading character, is an Oscar contender for his "designer violence" film Ordinary Americans; the next day he finds himself playing host to real-life serial killers Wayne and Scout, with their own agenda in mind. Popcorn rips the veneer off the American dream to find a culture of disposable violence driven by an insatiable media. In a society addicted to murder, it examines whether there is really such a thing as a responsible person. Slightly re-written during 1997. Winner of the 1997 Barclays Theatre Awards Best New Play award. Contains strong language. Brought to you live from the Hollywood home of Oscar-winning movie director, Bruce Delamitri, we give you uncensored, fly-on-the-wall coverage from inside this murderous siege, simultaneously on both stage and screen! With in-depth multi-angle analysis of each killing as it happens, 3D Hawk-Eye bullet path simulation, and rhetoric direct from the mouths of the murderers themselves, this is a riveting multimedia fusion of film and live theatre. Discover who Wayne and Scout Hudson will waste, catalogue the stunning arsenal of weapons they use, smell the panic (and blood) of their victims, and put yourself in the killers’ shoes with our Psycho-Cam. Then decide for yourself if their murders are their fault...or yours...
