Taylor Mac heats up late night at the 62 Center at Williams College

01:42PM / Thursday, October 23, 2008

WILLIAMSTOWN, Mass – Legendary New York City performance artist, actor, and playwright, Taylor Mac, who has taken New York, Edinburgh, London, Sydney, Stockholm, and Dublin by storm, comes to the Berkshires for one night only. His solo show The Be(a)st of Taylor Mac, which has garnered consistent rave reviews and an armload of international awards, will appear at the Adams Memorial Theatre on Thursday, October 30 and 10:00 pm.

A flamboyant chameleon of words, music, and sociopolitical tirades, visual and vocal phenomenon Mac employs gender-bending surrealism to explore the human condition and challenge the contemporary culture of fear -- oh, and he plays the ukulele. Obie Award-winner David Drake (The Night Larry Kramer Kissed Me) directs.

Taylor Mac’s broad experience has brought him to venues ranging from The San Francisco Opera House to the Sydney Opera House. He has shared bills with such performance legends as Tommy Tune, Eric Bogosian, Karen Finley, John Cameron Mitchell, and Mandy Patinkin (with whom he is writing a show), to music stars such as Nina Hagen, The Scissor Sisters, Fischer-spooner, and The Dresdan Dolls. He worked opposite C. Thomas Howell in the Sci-Fi Channel's original feature Crimson Force, and has originated over two-dozen roles in premieres of plays and musicals.

Mac’s myriad awards include PS 122's Ethyl Eichelberger Award for artistic excellence, a Herald Angel Award, an Edward Albee Foundation Residency, a Peter S. Reed Grant, The Ensemble Studio Theater's New Voices Fellowship in Playwriting, a commission from Dixon Place, and both a HERE Arts Center Supported Artist's Residency and a HERE Arts Resident Program Development Fellowship, making him one of the most-celebrated performance artists of the 21st century. The Be(a)st of Taylor Mac has received a Herald Angel Award (Edinburgh), a Latest 7 Award, Best of Brighton Review Award, and an Argus Angel Award (all Brighton).

The Be(a)st of Taylor Mac will be performed on the Adams Memorial Theatre on Thursday, October 30 and 10:00 pm. Tickets are free to all students.

For reservations, visit the Williams ’62 Center Box Office Tues-Sat, 1-5 pm or call (413) 597-2425. For more information, please visit http://62center.williams.edu.
