Description
A Day In Dig Nation
animation // music // film // live human
when you tune in, what do you tune out?
Rex, a somnambulist office drone, leads a dreary existence. When not pushing around a mouse in a fluorescent hellhole, he spends his time gobbling frozen dinners, zoning out on televised media and avoiding contact with real human beings (his mother, ex-girlfriends, etc.). But as his media-drenched life plods on, Rex becomes increasingly immersed in waking fantasies – fantastically represented with lush foley sound design and full-throttle projected imagery. Unable to distinguish the real from the illusory, Rex is forced to make a decision that threatens to burst the womb-like comfort of his modern existence.

Description
For 41 seasons Yale Cabaret has been a place of innovation and experimentation. As we begin its 42nd season, we demand that it be more than that for we maintain that art is not a luxury, but a responsibility and a necessity.
Our Cabaret will be…
- A gauntlet thrown in the face of our future
- A scar in the memory of our audience
- A ballerina dancing with a stick of dynamite.
An vital element of our season is the fostering of dialogue between the artists and the audience. We encourage active participation through the questioning of what is presented in the Yale Cabaret. Each Thursday evening’s performance will be followed by a talk back session with members of the production’s creative team.
Eat. Drink. Question Everything.
