Curtis Taylor, Vodvil

Working in film and theater we have repurposed opera, sacred song, ballet, strip shows and vaudeville to explore victory and defeat and absence. We are interested in the human need to be seen, the need to not vanish.

Abstract Change Pleasure

Abstract Change Pleasure is a column and forum and blog for Curtis Taylor and Vodvil Theater
