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.

——————————biographies—————————

Lonely Christopher (Playwright) writes outside and across forms. His documents include poetry, fiction, dramatic work, and blog posts. His first collection of short fiction, The Mechanics of Homosexual Intercourse, is forthcoming in 2011 from Akashic’s Little House on the Bowery imprint, edited by Dennis Cooper. Into, a collection of long-form verse with Robert Snyderman and Christopher Sweeney, will be released early this year from Seven Circles Press. His poetry was first collected in the chapbook Satan by Small Anchor Press (2007); Small Anchor also released Gay Plays (2009), the first two plays in a trilogy of linguistic investigations into the queer situation, and later published the title in a Mandarin translation. His second poetry collection Wow, Where Do You Come from, Upside-Down Land? was released as part of The Corresponding Society’s “No Know” chapbook series (2009, out of print). This title was a conceptual and political treatment of the contemporary dialogue on gay rights; novelist James Hannaham wrote that the volume’s “anti-poetic poetry shows us the heights of pathos and the depths of foolishness around the issue, while delightfully mixing sexuality with textuality.” Christopher is a founding member of The Corresponding Society, its blog manager, and an editor of its biannual literary journal Correspondence. He curated The Corresponding Society’s second series of chapbooks, “What Where” (forthcoming in Spring), including titles by Robert Fitterman and Anselm Berrigan. He is also a founding member of The Institutionalized Theater, a writer-based company in Brooklyn, and has written and directed many dramatic scenarios for the group. His original plays, including his Gay Play trilogy, have been produced in New York City and ChengDu, China. He tried to direct the Bad Quarto of Hamlet in 2008, which ended in titanic failure. That same year he worked with playwright Mac Wellman on the production of his play 1965UU starring Paul Lazar. His writing has appeared in the anthologies The Physical Poets Home Library and Way of the Word. He is currently collaborating with composer Reese Revak on an opera. Lonely Christopher lives in Bed-Stuy, Brooklyn. Oh, and his gmail address is lonelychristopher, if you want to write for whatever reason.

Teddy Nicholas (Director) is a playwright, director, and stage manager from in Queens, NY. He was a Dixon Place HOT!

He directed the Wadsworth award-winning production of Christopher Shinn’s Four at Purchase College, where he earned a B.A. Drama Studies.

Teddy co-wrote/directed with Leah Winkler A Pale Horse, Death & Hell Followed With (A Lifetime Original Series), a show developed from the Ontological-Hysteric Theater’s Incubator Short Form series. Teddy has stage managed and toured internationally with Young Jean Lee’s Theater Company with The Shipment (Brooklyn Arts Exchange, NY; Wexner Center for the Arts, OH; The Kitchen, NY; Kunstenfestival des Arts, BE) and assisted stage managed CHURCH (Under The Radar Festival 08 at The Public Theater). He also stage managed Thomas Bradshaw’s Southern Promises (PS122), Eliza Bent’s She of the Voice (Undergroundero Festival at PS122), Tommy Smith’s The Break-Up & Ken Urban’s The Happy Sad (The Flea Theater), Taylor Mac’s OKAY and Anne Washburn’s October/November (Ensemble Studio Theatre).
