WHAT IS IT ABOUT?
With text inspired by As I Lay Dying, Chuck.Chuck.Chuck is a collage of spoken word, video, music and dance. An investigation of dislocation, failure and loss, the piece follows the family members of Addie Bundren as they decide to leave their home to fulfill her dying wish - to be returned to her birthplace for burial. Chuck.Chuck.Chuck charts their arduous journey and examines crises of family and faith.
The novel employs a stream of consciousness approach, unfolding through a series of interior monologues told by fifteen narrators throughout 59 chapters; events are fragmented, often revisited from several points of view. In Chuck.Chuck.Chuck., the performers dramatize Faulkner's literary techniques and layers of sound and video externalize each character's inner life, illustrating onstage the beautifully disjointed world of the book.

RE:Chuck, chuck, chuck
Fabulous play. I saw it in previews a few months ago. The language and the acting rival anything Ive seen on Broadway. It is like a modern day Greek classic. Dont miss it
