- Description
- 1 videocassette (59 min.) : sd., col.; 1/2 in.
- Summary
- Bill Irwin, "a thinking man's clown," produces works of comic genius. Performing at the American Place Theatre, Irwin dances, floats, skips and trips. His body is rubber; his wit is steel. In this critique of the "new theater," Irwin awakes in pajamas to an actor's nightmare. A heckling critic challenges and chases the pretentious theatrical artist. The stage manager offers hilarious commentary on modernist theater. A sinister suction force repeatedly captures and draws Irwin feet-first off the stage.
