Event Information
Description
The Flying Doctor by Moliere (over and over and over) is an explosion of the rarely-performed Moliere work in which the piece is performed multiple times in quick succession. It examines what happens to the actors, the characters, the audience, and even the text itself as each experiences the work and morphs throughout the process - it will never be the same any two nights. There will be live music, champagne, literature, acrobatics, and (of course) a flying doctor.
PRESS
"This terrific production of The Flying Doctor is packed with music and songs, all of which are put over in a lusty and abandoned fashion by the cast" - Brooklyn Magazine
"The Flying Doctor by Moliere (over and over and over) is a hyperactive media collage, bold in its creativity and exciting on many levels." - New York Theater Review
"In a back room of a small Chinatown gallery, a cadre of charismatic performers use the 90 minutes at their command to create a kinetic spectacle full of humor, music and feeling. The FlexCo production of The Flying Doctor, herein subtitled “Over and Over and Over,” is a raucous and, in the end, surprisingly melancholy take on Moliere’s 1645 Commedia dell’Arte play Le Médecin Volant." - Woman Around Town
