Old Paper Houses
Created by Piehole
with texts by Bernadette Meyer
Directed by Tara Ahmadinejad
In New England the winter is five months long, everybody eats beans, and everything's buried under six feet of snow. Moving from dreary 1970s New England to an 1840s Transcendental utopia and beyond, a group of wavering idealists search for meaning and purpose in all the wrong places. Combining paper dioramas, ecstatic small-town parades, live-feed projection, and poetry by Bernadette Mayer, Old Paper Houses cycles through faith and doubt to ask: how do we continue to find things to believe in, even when it's really, really cold?
