Editor reviews
Creator of Dugout III: Warboy (and the Backboard Blues), Terry Allen, describes his play as, "A love story, an investigation into how memory is invented, a kind of supernatural Jazz History, ghost, blood fiction. Dugout is a made up world, constructed out of true stories and lies I heard and experienced as a boy growing up in the sprawls of Texas". Set in the 1950s, Dugout III is a brilliant and whimsical intersection between storytelling and post-modern theater. The performance by Jo Harvey Allen is particularly enthralling. His light tone combines brilliantly with original music produced by Terry Allen, himself.
Summary
Drawing upon his childhood memories of West Texas, artist, musician, and writer Terry Allen has created this magical, multi-layered evening in the tradition of Southern story-telling. As Allen explains, “Dugout is a love story; an investigation into how memory is invented."
Recorded before a live audience at the Skirball Cultural Center, Los Angeles in March 2004.
