Subject: Physical Comedy OAF World Premiere This Weekend
The Scoundrel & Scamp Theatre
"Quirky and Hilarious"
Acclaimed Performers and Artists-In-Residence at the S&S,
Wolfe Bowart & Matt Walley,
open the world premiere of OAF,
an original work of physical theater for all ages
Opens this Friday!
He's tall, dark and hairy.
An affable carnival sideshow performer discovers that sometimes life's obstacles are self-imposed ... and solutions to problems can appear in strange and humorous places.
A comic glimpse into the quirky world of the carnival sideshow alley.
Not intended for mature audiences.
Theater for "All Ages"? Does that mean it is for me?
When the Scoundrel & Scamp Theatre was founded, we named it to acknowledge our mission & passion to build up the next generation of theater-goer. We invite ALL Scoundrels AND Scamps to join us for this amazing production.
At the S&S, "All Ages" does not translate into "cute theater for children." We aim to produce content that can engage and raise interesting questions whether you are five or one-hundred and five.
OAF is exactly that kind of production - a hilarious and insightful hour of theater in the vein of Jacques Tati and the great silent film comedians.
Scamps, grab your nearest Scoundrel. Scoundrels, heft your Scamps on in.
You will all love the amazing work of Wolfe and Walley.
About our Artists-in-Residence:
Matt Walley and Wolfe Bowart
Since last fall our Artists-in-Residence have been hard at work crafting the fantastical and detailed sideshow world of Oaf.
Imagine coming into work to hear the cry of the carnival barker, bangs, crashes, or perhaps the roars of a crowd and you get a sense of what it has been for our staff to work at the S&S over the last few months.
A special opportunity to support Physical Theater in Tucson
At the S&S we are dedicated to engaging audiences that may lack opportunity to experience the impact of theater on our lives. We carefully select our content while fostering a community of artists who can create high-quality theater that immerses and connects with new audiences.
To that end, we can use your help, as we can't do it through ticket sales alone. Our intimate space isn't large enough to support our quality of production while keeping ticket prices accessible. We rely on supporters like you to make our outreach to new audiences possible.
Resident artists Wolfe Bowart and Matt Walley, have crafted a work of phenomenal physical theater - a work that is both significant, profound AND for audiences of all ages. We believe there should be more work like this done in Tucson regularly.
Please take this opportunity to support the production of Oaf, our efforts to provide a home in Tucson for physical theater, or gift a ticket to a child, adult or family who otherwise may not be able to attend the production.
