Fucked and Jolly: Ten Years of the Exponential Festival

Fucked and Jolly is a reflective compendium of artist-to-artist interviews commemorating a boffo decade of The Exponential Festival. Squinny at the banters between playwrights, choreographers, and clowns as they encounter one another's work and discuss prevailing trends of performance in the new millennium, the radical experiments being conducted to bring online onstage (and vice versa), and the post-Downtown performing arts ecosystem. A missive from the still-grinding heart of the contemporary performance community, Fucked and Jolly features conversations with Nic Adams, Tristan Allen, Leonie Bell, Eliza Bent, Theresa Buchheister, Ann Marie Dorr, Salomé Egas, Lena Engelstein, Shawn Escarciga, Lisa Fagan, David Greenspan, Ben Holbrook, Marissa Joyce Stamps, Hannah Kallenbach, Kate Kremer, Sleth Larson, Joey Merlo, Nicolás Noreña, Kyoung Park, Cristina Pitter, Lee Rayment, Evan Silver, Cameron Stuart, Christina Tang, Alex Tatarsky, SB Tennent, Ellpetha Tsivicos, and Bailey Williams.
