"The Spinner" by Foreshadow

About the Show The Spinner reimagines the Fates from Greek mythology as ungodly factory wardens who’ve outsourced their cruel work to mortal garment workers in a 19th-century textile mill. Told through a mixture of overhead projector shadow puppetry and shadow masks, and featuring an original folk music score by Jared Engel, The Spinner unstitches the lengths we will go to make our fates our own. The Spinner is paired with Eudora and the Blackest Crow , an original short shadow puppetry play about a young girl, a coal mine, a sinister long-lost relation, and a murder of crows, set in a not-so-bygone era of Appalachian grit. Recommended for adults and teens 13+ Overhead projector shadow puppetry and masks Length: 45 minutes Language: English From New York!

About the Artist <a href="https://foreshadowpuppetry.com/">Foreshadow</a> is an award-winning experimental shadow puppetry company whose macabre original plays evoke the timeless mystery of a story told around a campfire. Co-founded by Gaby FeBland and Rosalind Lilly, two puppeteers who have been making theatre together since middle school, Foreshadow has performed at the Carnegie Hall Weimar Festival, Green-Wood Cemetery, Dixon Place, Brick Aux, The Owl Music Parlor, Duane Park, and the Coney Island Mermaid Parade.

Her plays have been produced off-Broadway through the Araca Project, at Northwestern University, and at the Frontier Theater in Chicago, and her writing has been published in McSweeney’s and Spider Magazine. She’s puppeteered on TV for Green Screen Adventures, in commercials for UiPath, and onstage at the National Puppetry Conference at the Eugene O’Neill Center, the La MaMa Puppet Festival, and with Bread and Puppet at Theater for the New City. She is currently an artist-in-residence at Culture Lab LIC, where she’s developing a new full-length play. Rosalind Lilly is a puppetry artist and actor from Brooklyn, NY, who is now based in the Hudson Valley. She studied acting at Mason Gross School of the Arts at Rutgers University and at Shakespeare’s Globe Theater in London.
