The Martin E. Segal Theatre Center in New York City presented Experimental Theatre + Performance Publishing with 3 Hole Press, 53rd State Press, and Ugly Duckling Presse livestreamed on the global, commons-based peer produced HowlRound TV network at howlround.tv Monday 17 December 2018 at 3:30 p.m. PST (San Francisco) / 5:30 p.m. CST (Chicago) / 6:30 p.m. EST (New York).
Why publish a play in the 21st century? What are the limits of performance and paper—and what becomes possible when they converge? Can something be so analog that it becomes futuristic? In the last decades, independent publishing houses have taken up the challenge to re-think the relationship between print and performance in our times of post-dramatic theatre and ubiquitous virtual texts.
Join Mac Wellman, publishers Matvei Yankelevich (Ugly Duckling Presse), Kate Kremer (53rd State Press), Rachel Kauder Nalebuff (3 Hole Press), and affiliate artist Annie Dorsen, Will Arbery, DaaimahMubashshir, and Corinne Donly. Conversations moderated by Frank Hentschker.
