The Garden of Forked Tongues is a live and recorded mixed-media performance concerning a group of ordinary people who become involved with tourists from another dimension. Their journey takes them to all corners of the multiverse, and to vast, unknown horizons in their minds. During the presentation the audience is hypnotized to impart the feeling of traveling through space-time with the characters.
This amazing experiment was originally performed at Teatro IATI with:
Elizabeth Stine as Persephone
Keith Chandler as Charles Albert
Anna Wilson as Agatha Albert and *Megatha*
Jacqueline LeClaire as Barbara Jones and The Compere
Tim Donovan Jr. as Charlie Albert
Adam Hyland as Chuck Albert
James Rich as Cosmos, an insurance agent (from the 6th dimension)
Alexis Fedor as Honora, an insurance agent and Ba'al, a depraved creature.
Harry Meatbahl as Boulette
and
myriad phantasmagoric tourists
