Bony Lil's Creation + Distraction is coming!!


Bony Lil's Creation + Distraction is about to be released in entirety online for the first time ever!

Created by Zea Barker + Michael Pope

The short film duet blends live action silent comedy, unique hand-crafted animation and original scores by Valerie Thompson, Brian Viglione and a few talented musicians from Blue Man Group. The films explore two challenging sides of the creative process; Distraction is the classic story of girl meets blank sheet of paper and Creation explores the chaos of inspired creation and its various repercussions. Shot on black and white Super 8 film and digital, it features a unique style of hand-drawn and stop-motion animation devised by Zea Barker.

The films have been shown by Chicago Short Film Brigade, Blood From a Turnip Puppet Film Festival and the nationally touring Fuck the Back Row.

Soon: online for all to see!

October 4th - Worldwide

to celebrate the birth of master silent clown; Buster Keaton

tune in. It'll be a hoot.

It's been a blast to get the show in front of people. Big chunks of rewrites each night as the piece takes better shape. It is great when moments land as planned. Sometimes even better when an unexpected audience reaction reveals something new about the piece.

This festival has been a wonderful opportunity to share work and meet others with similar passions. Any bajillionaires out there looking to invest in pure awesome, this is the place.

Check out the review on NYTheatre.com!

And come catch the last show of the run!
