Landscape Mechanical, written by Sarah Loucks, directed by Ann Marie Dorr at the Museum of Human Achievement, Austin, TX 2018.
At a used car lot somewhere in America, a sad salesman tries to make a buck, while two mechanics tend to the broken cars that get us from one place to another. Inspired by the mechanical experience of performers Jose Lerma and Matt Spain, Landscape Mechanical is a meditation on the art car maintenance and the vast terrain of America. Using sound, movement, and machines, this new play investigates what it means to fix the vehicles that traverse this country, but never go anywhere yourself.
