Description

#txtshow – one of Brian Feldman’s most famous performances and the longest running independent production in D.C. theater history – returns to the venue it originated, the Kerouac House, exactly 10 years to the day.

For this completely interactive performance, all audience members will keep their phones “on” – as a mysterious character named txt (pronounced ‘text’) recites anonymous, real-time tweets written by YOU, live and in-person.

Audience members are instructed to bring their smartphones, ideally fully-charged, and actively use them during the show’s 45 minute duration. It is not necessary to have a Twitter account in order to participate, as everyone in attendance is randomly assigned a protected and anonymous account for their use.

Based entirely upon what the audience writes in anonymity, #txtshow may contain mature themes, profane language, and explicit sexual content.

All tickets include one complimentary Frutisse – a new, fruit tea infusion beverage made in Orlando with love and without preservatives, high-fructose corn syrup, or colorings.

Five performances!
• Sunday, February 24 at 3:00 PM
• Monday, February 25 at 7:00 PM
• Tuesday, February 26 at 7:00 PM (10th Anniversary date)

Kerouac House
1418 Clouser Ave.
Orlando, FL 32804
(Located in a residential area of College Park, please be mindful of your volume upon arrival and departure.)

Reviews:
“#txtshow delivers all the breathless, anything-can-happen anticipation and nervous laughter of an improv show, but without any of the pressure to make a funny that makes a crappy improv troupe so agonizing to watch. Like a sex party, it was both exhilarating and exhausting, and it seemed to work best when we all synced our wavelengths. But at times, it was even more fun to just sit back and watch.”
(Christina Cauterucci, Arts Editor – Washington City Paper)

“The concept is simple: Feldman reads aloud any anonymous tweets sent to him by the audience. The results are often as thought-provoking as they are silly — much like Feldman himself.”
(Tod Caviness, Orlando Sentinel)

“It’s like a livestream at a conference, with everyone responding in real time to whatever is happening. With all of the thematic links between the tweets, it’s sometimes tough to believe that Feldman isn’t reading them out of order to emphasize the relatedness of some of the topics. He swears that he reads them as he receives them.”
(Rachel Kurzius, DCist)

“The best part is when audience members begin “intervening” in the relationships of other audience members... Which, of course, sends the first-row couple in question bursting into laughter.”
(Ron Cassie, Baltimore Magazine)

“Grab your smartphone and warm up those fingertips because this is your chance to share – or even better, have spoken aloud by a local notable – pretty much any random, opinionated or outlandish thought you can imagine.”
(Aimee Shea, Orlando Weekly)

“Yes, you heard right! YOU make the “script!” Brian doesn’t utter a word unless it comes to him via his phone, from the audience. As I’m sure you can guess, a concept like this can lead to a very entertaining show!”
(Erica Finlay, AMPlified Culture)

“#txtshow = AMAZING!!!! @brianfeldman put on a great, great show.”
(@randompattern)

“I found myself laughing louder than ever at this performance. The uninhibited mind is a strange and quirky beast... #txtshow [is] a Mad Lib with an emphasis on Mad.”
(Thomas Thorspecken, Analog Artist Digital World)

“Thx @BrianFeldman for the great #txtshow. Encouraging tweeps to see it.”
(@ten_ten)

“Combined with some hilarious requests, the end result is an absurdist satire, which is never once alike. Which is why, although Feldman has been performing the show since 2009, it never gets old. In fact, he insists that it is much more relevant in today’s world than it was when the show was conceptualised.”
(Susanna Myrtle Lazarus, The Hindu)

“#txtshow held up a mirror, and in it we see the promise of instant total communications, and how it will kill us all, unexpectedly.”
(Carl F Gauze, Ink 19 – Archikulture Digest)
