Abstract

Moving, unsettling and bitter-sweetly funny, Proto-type Theater's Third Person: Bonnie & Clyde Redux investigates the events that unfolded out of the electric meeting of two of history's most infamous lovers, Bonnie Parker and Clyde Barrow. As they illustrate, control and sometimes miscommunicate the story, the performers veer between the emotional, the factual and the fantastical as they pick-apart the particulars of this strange love affair. Delivered in the third person through a variety of lo-fi media including video, drawings and overhead projection, Third Person: Bonnie & Clyde Redux creates a fragmented tale of evidence, rumours and the surprising connections between love, life, death and donuts.
