Moonwatchers

By Corey Farrell & Nigel Berkeley · Open Eye Figure Theater, Minneapolis, MN
Directed by Joel Sass · Best Play 2022 MN Fringe Festival

About

A play about two lunar janitors — overworked, Beckett-like custodians tasked with caring for the Moon each night. When the Moon mysteriously disappears, the disgruntled workers are forced into an absurd but touching odyssey to retrieve it. The show blends movement, puppetry, original music, and object work — transforming mundane materials into a vast lunar landscape. Scrappy, playful, and sincere.

Salvage Yard EP

Corey Quinn · Developed through RE/VENUE, curated by Meghan Finn & ART/NY

About

A folk-rock concept album brought to life as a hybrid performance piece. Part barn rave, part dance theatre — the piece follows a hooded camo jacket character returning home to find their rural hometown changed, or maybe it's just them. What unfolds is a night of kinetic reckoning of identity, memory, and loss. A journey of untangling the overgrown weeds of yourself, searching for what's still worth salvaging.

The Piece

A live three-piece folk band plays, mixes, and records songs as part of their own ritual. Beside them, a solo dancer embodies the internal world — expressing memory, grief, and transformation through body and space. Think Dead Outlaw if Dead Outlaw met Justin Peck's Illinoise.
