Visual foley. A film that doesn't exist. A spot on the wall. With Virtuoso (working title), Proto-type Theater expands on the sensual experience of their critically acclaimed Whisper into a world of cinematic decadence. Three performers stage a film about a stagnant suburbia where the minutiae of everyday life has become strange: glass windows portend violence, a spot on the wall promises freedom, a stranger appears in the living room. The audience witnesses the construction of a film on three flat screen television monitors, behind which three performers assemble the necessary backgrounds, costumes and props to craft the perfect image. Virtuoso (working title) is a negotiation of the live and the mediated, ruminating on love, home, and perfection.
