Getalong Gang Performance Group

Comment on Facebook

Founding members Spencer Driggers, Michael Federico, Zenobia Taylor, and Aspen Taylor created a friendly monster last year in The Getalong Gang Performance Group. This little chimera places itself directly in the line of fire between the armies of The Theater and The Dance. What results is an artistically nutritious stew that tastes like heaven. Put another way, the Getalong Gang challenges the hearts and minds of its audience while showing them a great night out, as well.

      As a student and lover of Greek drama and tragedy, I went to the Getalong Gang's "Post-Oedipus" with a mixture of anticipation and trepidation. Although the post-modern adaptation of Euripedes' "The Phoenician Women" plays a bit too much like a reality TV show gone bad, the performances, choreography, and direction are all impressive. Jocasta, the driving force of the show, is a role that is brilliantly executed by Jennifer Gravenstein, whose tour-de-force of melodramatics recalls Gloria Swanson and Bette Davis at their greatest diva moments. Choreographer Zenobia Taylor makes excellent use of a multi-leveled stage, creating distinctive movements to define each character and stylized fighting to heighten the histrionic tone that characterizes the play. In the hands of a lesser company, the audience might walk away simply feeling bad for the characters, but the Getalong Gang was able to keep a sense of realism present throughout the madness, and thus win the audience's empathy.

      I saw Post Oedipus last weekend, and I have to say that I was completely delighted! The acting was the best I've seen in Austin in quite some time. There isn't a weak link in the group. Every moment of the show takes you by surprise, and it's like nothing I've ever seen before on stage. It will break your heart AND make you laugh, and it is all so very genuine and compelling. We are all still talking about it, days later. Collapse
