G.O.Ne - Oct 23 and 24 - Two Shows Only

UPDATE: There's a new Indiegogo perk, $15 "For our Far Flung Friends" - This is a special one for those too far away to catch the show. We'll give you special online access to video from the performance as well as a unique, online program. Only a couple of hours to go!

David Foster Wallace's, Good Old Neon, will be performed by Ian Forester (Needtheater) in Culver City, CA at The Ivy Substation, as G.O.Ne. (Previously performed as, Glint).

Ian was inspired by the story's powerful message and decided to adapt "Good Old Neon," as a one-man show for the stage. Ian performed the play, then titled Glint, to much acclaim during the 2011 Hollywood Fringe Festival. Not only was it a critical success but more importantly, it galvanized both audiences and Needtheater itself. We were amazed at the way audiences felt the need to talk about this show after it was done, the way it seemed to touch on the deepest and most shared parts of who we are as humans. It did exactly what we always dream theater can do. We had to do it again.

And so, with permission from Wallace's estate and with generous support from the Culver City Performing Arts Grant Program, Needtheater brings G.O.Ne to the historic Ivy Substation for two nights only, October 23 & 24.


Tickets available here OR you can support the show through indiegogo if you can't make it (or even if you can, check out the perks).

Promotional video here (and indiegogo info).

 

I'd love to attend this! (Please send me a review if you see it).
