otherworldly

(...reviews from earlier this spring)

"...a complete, unique universe. Red Fly/Blue Bottle just might generate some buzz."
-The Village Voice

“...a mesmerizing fusion of performance art and multisensory installation.”
-The New York Press

“...an intriguing, richly layered work of music-theater that resists categorization...”
-Thirteen.org/Sunday Arts Blog

“Crazy Creepy Cool …Eye candy, fantastically creepy music, and an expert dash of steampunk fill the stage in this deliciously haunting concert... They’re a ridiculously talented group...”
-BUST Magazine

“...moody, driving music… lyrical monologues, otherworldly videos and an ingeniously eerie set… [Red Fly/Blue Bottle is] a purposefully elusive work, a poetic meditation…”
-The New York Times

"A devastating look at loss guided by pulsating, memorable songs, the 75-minute work is a mystery, love story, and occasionally, a humorous science lecture."
-Flavorpill.com

“Red Fly/Blue Bottle is another in a recent spate of bold experimental pieces that largely eschew plot and linear narrative in favor of challenging theatrical devices that foreground aspects other than text. This production will greatly reward both the novice and the connoisseur of new downtown theater.”- Off-Off Online

“The entire production team, performers and designers alike, is a force to be reckoned with … Red Fly becomes a wonderful touchstone for intelligent and moving multimedia pieces, and I certainly expect big things from this promising team.”
-Obscene Jester

ominous mystery

from a RFBB/Latitude 14 review in a dutch newspaper. august 28 2009

"...Simply diving into this ominous mystery, this mosaic of various forms of art: theatre, story-telling, music, poetry, sophisticated film and photo projections in ànd on a beautifully designed setting. And then after the performance in one of the many outdoor bars a nice and long discussion with friends about the sense and meaning. And hopefully, mainly about beauty. For especially, the design of the projections is really phenomenal."
