“At six o’clock on a warm Sunday morning, Joseph Medeiros…had just ridden his mountain bike across the Williamsburg Bridge into Manhattan, carrying a big black food-delivery bag, the kind that usually holds pizza. This one was stuffed with forty-two theatrical props, including a watermelon, a loom, a rain stick, a goddess headdress, and a Cyclops eye fashioned out of leather.”
—David Rompf, The New Yorker [PDF]
Book 2 premiered soon after dawn in East River Park in June 2021. It is available to tour to all different kinds of spaces: parks, backyards, libraries, schools...
Please contact us if you are interested in hosting a performance.
“Out of the basement, Medeiros’s wizardry might seem more detectable in the park’s broad daylight. Not so. Even Helios can’t make visible Medeiros’s surprises.”
—Billy McEntee, The Brooklyn Rail
