(RUS)H at the 3LD Art & Technology Center

HERE Arts Center presents (RUS)H, text and video design by James Scruggs, at the 3LD Art & Technology Center from 27 Feb - 22 Mar 2008.

(RUS)H: Lost in a labyrinth of repeating memories and trapped in a failing marriage, Rus yearns to feel something new, full and real. After a car accident, he connects with Sonny, a hustler, and quickly descends into a 'down-low' world of sex, drugs and violence. His wife Sirene becomes increasingly love starved as she watches Rus become more and more involved with Sonny. Rus is drawn into and tempted by a shadow world, where, like Icarus with his wings of wax, he will be brought either to salvation or to ruin.

Directed by Kristin Marting, (RUS)H features Marc Bovino, Chandra Thomas, Dax Valdes, Luis Vega and Lathrop Walker.

The creative team comprises Anabella Lenz (choreography) and Chris Brown (lighting).
