ETG attempts to stage the world wide web in The Internet. Fusing dance, movement, video, music, original and found texts, ETG examines what lies beneath the cool, sleek surface of the information super highway. By asking what propels people into the shadowy underworld of the world wide web where one desires to objectify bodies and see people fail, ETG aims to find the root of human connection at its newest form.

Nancy Upton (NANCY) has studied theater at Tulane University and Circle in the Square Theater school. She is currently pursuing a degree in history and creative writing at NYU. She has appeared in VOLUME 2: HORROR at the Ontological Hysteric Theater with ETG followed by Big Girls Club (The Happy Dance Dance Princess Show!) in the Antidepressant Festival at the Brick Theater.

Everywhere Theatre Group premiered Big Girls Club ( Happy Dance Dance Princess Show) at the Brick Theater summer 2009 prompting extreme reactions from audiences and critics alike. Matt Johnston of nytheatre.com said, “there have been numerous pieces of theatre, film, television, and literature that have embarked on a journey into the psychologically violent depths of the social impact of female body image on the lives of women and young girls. Big Girls Club (The Happy Happy Dance Princess Show), part of The Brick’s Antidepressant Festival this summer, is maybe the most direct and biting I have experienced”. The Formula Play is a second installment of the Big Girls Club series  that attempts to form a cohesive narrative of the American Girl Story that only self-destructs. Taking into account the extreme reactions from the first installment, we focus on the tension between the conscious, formulaic female story, and the deeper ideas that lie underneath by exposing three women stuck in between familiar archetypes, subplots and redemption   attempting to escape and kill each other  along the way. There will be moments of gut-wrenching ugliness, pacified with uncomfortable pleasures and simple honesty- resulting in a deeply ambivalent and unnerving experience of theater.

Tickets are $15
