In other news, our next Dark Tour, “The Wonderland Massacre” has already begun rehearsals and we have released two teaser behind-the-scenes pics.  Check out our trailer, which will be posted soon.  In the meantime, here is one of the images below. (Pictured: H. Gonzalez, Jr and D. Gerd).

Our music and poetry event, Textual Overture, had a great 3-hour long performance last Tuesday (Oct 28).  There were several new musicians, poetry by local writers, poems by Brooke Lovestone, and play performances with scripts by Barry Berryhill and Michael Verderber. (Pictured below: The Felix Jazz Trio).

Audition flyer: rehearsal shots

This October, Zero Untitled will be presenting multiple one act plays, and we need casts to fill them! Anyone is welcome to audition, whether you have tons of experience or none at all. Come by Fore Hall, Room 102 on September 3rd at 7:00 to visit with us and we’ll see where you fit best.

Plays being produced will be from almost any genre, such as comedy, drama, dramedy, western, suspense, etc.

Let us know what you want/like to do.

Additionally, information on our upcoming “The Wonderland Massacre” production and other film and mime projects will be discussed as well.

To say that Zero Untitled has been busy with film projects is an understatement.  We just premiered our video for Octavio Quintanilla’s poem “Café Triste” on August 8 at a private screening/poetry reading event.

The film is now viewable on YouTube.

Our recent Happening production “Dual Sex” can be seen on YouTube.  More information on “Dual Sex” can be found on its page.

The next film that will be premiering is our Corpus Christi 7-Day Film Project entry “Catchweight” on August 23, 2014 at the Harbor Playhouse. “Catchweight” is our collaboration with another production company, Writers Unblocked.  The film is directed by Ismael Prado and written by Caleb Bonitz.

In the meantime, we have been filming footage for another Quintanilla poem, called “Mal de Ojo” which will premiered at a later date. In addition to that, we put together another short in our “Ultra Short” film series called “That One Friend” but the release date is still pending.

Pics and footage will be posted soon.

The second in our summer Happening series, “Dual Sex” was performed multiple times on the campus of Texas A&M University – Kingsville.  The interpretive dance piece was staged multiple times in a row during the course of two 2-hour long blocks.  Although the piece only lasts two minutes long, the brevity underscores the fact that every two minutes, someone is sexually assaulted.

The piece is about a male and female dancer who get attacked by members of the “audience” while a poem about superficiality and beauty is read. During the attack, the attackers smear paint on the dancer, to convey the tainting of sexual assault victims.   Check out the show page to see more!

We have more around the corner throughout this summer including multiple film projects and more Happenings!

Our annual summer “Textual Overture” open-mic series is next week on Thursday, June 26th.  Bring your poems, short stories, plays, instruments, and other performance goodies to the show! Location: Cafe 5, 634 E. King Street, Kingsville, Tx!

HAPPENING #1 – “The Mindless Men” will have two performances (for now, more to come!) in Corpus Christi.

Friday, June 13 – 7:00 Corpus Christi Marina (near Joe’s Crab Shack)

Saturday, June 14 – 8:00 Yin Yang Fandango and the Tango Tea Room (Tango Fandango)
