EarlOrrin Productions is proud to have developed a historical rendition of Richard O’Brian’s Rocky Horror Show, featuring an all African-American shadow cast, entitled, “Chocolate Covered Rocky Horror!” This sexy comedy is guaranteed to leave you speechless and wanting more. Our production will feature pantomimed performances and crowd engagement—placing audiences in the comedic experience that is Dr. Frank-N-Furter’s Castle.

The production company has decided to evoke the age old tradition of a shadow cast for this highly provocative yet entertaining production. The cast will dramatically mime the film as it plays on a large screen and will strongly encourage the audience to sing along with the film bringing another dimension to the shadow cast.

It is my general purpose as an African- American owned Production firm to educate, cultivate, and enhance the knowledge of Americans and to uplift our community as a whole. EarlOrrin Productions, is enriched with a dedicated team to explore and peer outside the societal norms, enhancing their skill set to be one of the generation’s innovative leaders in the artistic humanities.

Dream Island at Joe’s Movement Emporium, Jun 6-7

Dream Island at Joe’s Movement Emporium, Jun 6-7

Dream Island

Saturday, June 6, 2015 at 8:00pm
Sunday, June 7, 2015 at 8:00pm

Location: Joe’s Movement Emporium

A highly charged physical expression, ‘Dream Island’ is part carnival, part laboratory, part archeological trip. Melding movement, text, music, and installation, it concocts thirteen vignettes infused with playful, humorous, explosive, amorphous, and dark absurdity. Initially inspired by a Japanese theme park built on the buried landfill called ‘Dream Island’, this piece digs, examines, and reveals layers of debris, getting deeper and more distant from the reality. The audience is asked to bare witness as five characters attempt to search, reconstruct, and uncover memories and histories, both tangible and fleeting, personal and collective.

Direction and structure by Naoko Maeshiba, created by Emily Hall, Sarah Lloyd, Donald Roderick, Danni Tsuboi, & Naoko Maeshiba, sound design and light installation by Khristian Weeks, environment design by Khristian Weeks, Naoko Maeshiba, & Sarah Lloyd, Lighting design by Helen Garcia Alton.

Admission $25
