Corkscrew Theater Festival in collaboration with Sheep Eats Wolf presents corkscrew 4.0, a series of interactive online experiences as twisted, unsettling, absurd, and alienating as the internet itself. Available at corkscrew4pt0.com through Sunday, August 23, these experiences are inspired by the plays programmed for what would have been Corkscrew's fourth summer season of world premieres and readings.
In light of COVID-19, Corkscrew has committed to producing this line-up in August 2021 and supporting the artists in the meantime in the creation of these entirely new works. Each production team received $750 in production subsidy for their 2020 projects as well as the first half of their originally planned $1,500 commissioning fees; the reading series teams received an additional $500 fee for their projects.
The commissioned artists have adapted, reimagined, and exploded their plays, ending up with 8 unique interactive web experiences - visit corkscrew4pt0.com now to experience them.
