#thisisdope! #archivists (and those who dig cool found stuff), go see #saysomethingbunny! This is what happens when an artist uses found material — an amateur wire recording! — in a riveting performance. Tickets sell out quickly but I can hook you up with a discount code if you DM me.

I don’t know how to describe this show other than “found footage theatre.” It’s so fascinating and wonderful. It’s sold out most of its run but get in if you can. It’s like nothing you’ve ever seen. @saysomethingbunny is an inventive and thought-provoking dissection of a family you didn’t realize you cared about.

Say Something Bunny is Alison Kobayasi's delightful — and somewhat dumbfounding — found footage masterwork. Back when the web was new we were promised new forms of creative hypertext. This show (piece? work? performance?) is something more. A rabbit hole of rabbit holes. A winded reel of ephemera that keeps unspooling. . . . #saysomethingbunny #alisonkobayashi

Describing, or even categorizing, Alison S. M. Kobayashi’s (@asmkobayashi; MF 16) “Say Something Bunny!” is hard. It has elements of documentary storytelling, but it’s also theatrical and experiential. Documentary filmmaker Penny Lane (@pennyjupiter; MF 16) says we should see the show “or suffer the misery of all your cool friends failing to describe it to you adequately.” With that in mind, we’ll be as succinct as possible: The germination of the work began when Alison obtained a 60-year-old amateur recording by a long-island family, and through months of listening, research, and writing, she constructed a two-hour history of this family—aided by props, audio, video, and costumes—that she performs for a small audience seated at a round table. Last spring, Alison came to MacDowell to spend a few weeks writing “Say Something Bunny!,” and we were lucky to experience the piece in person during its current run in NYC, co-presented with @UnionDocs. If you swipe left, you can see the acknowledgements page from the work's script. .
