The Performing Garage presents Limited Return Engagement—Three Performances Only! GIT ALONG LIL DOGGIES commingles elements of William S. Burroughs’ novel The Place of Dead Roads, with short stories by Annie Proulx, country-western line dance, and gay pornography. The performance unfolds against a projected video landscape of repainted Marlboro cigarette TV commercials and within an immersive soundscape incorporating country-western recordings from the 1920’s–30’s and contemporary new age music for pedal steel guitar. Directed by Yvan Greenberg, and featuring Corey Dargel, Oleg Dubson, "director-designer-choreographer Yvan Greenberg's deceptive vision....affords some truly original moments...'Doggies' is impressively immersive" Laboratory Theater "is cookin' up some tasty stage grub...Yvan Greenberg, the feller stagin' this show, adds in more fixins than a Louisiana roux...Corral up your friends and put some wild back in your west." GIT ALONG LIL DOGGIES premiered at The Brick Theater in Williamsburg, Brooklyn NY, October 14–30, 2010. The piece was developed in part through in-progress performances at Dixon Place in February 2009. The role of Salt Chunk Mary was originally developed with and performed by Sheila Donovan.
