Yeast Nation (the triumph of life)
UC College-Conservatory of Music
As part of the CCM rehearsal and production,
Mark Hollmann and Greg Kotis joined us to work with our students and give feedback on our production.
It was quite an honor to work with these generous and creative folks.
At CCM, director and choreographer Vincent DeGeorge perfectly captures the high stakes, absurdist tone of the piece, with his actors playing it straight and letting the silliness in the writing come through (including a quite funny use of sign language). He uses the space very well, and includes many subtle nods to Urinetown. The movement and dancing are unique and give the yeast characters personality while conveying the simple and shared purpose they have.
