LANGUAGE |
What
is language? What are words and how do they mean things? With simple colorful
props and his own amazingly mutable body, mime, actor, and science fiction
author Eliot Fintushel shares and embodies the verse of Lewis Carroll, both
narrative and nonsense. "Jabberwocky" and "The Walrus and the Carpenter," come
to life, as an umbrella becomes the sun, a sword, or a dragon's jaws, and a hand
becomes, well--everything. Other nonsense songs and verse are explored
as well. Here is a visual celebration of some of the mysteries of literature
and of language.
