Commedia Beauregard has teamed up with the
Museum of Bad
Art to take six works of art from their permanent
collection and translate them into short plays.
Fulfilling the mission of Commedia Beauregard to translate
not only from language to language, but from one art form to
another, the six playwrights each write a 15-minute play
that tells the story of, or behind, one of the paintings
from the MOBA collection. Six local directors then
take those plays and bring them to the Bryant-Lake Bowl
Cabaret Theatre stage on four consecutive Sundays!
The
Museum Of Bad Art (MOBA) is a community-based, private
institution dedicated to the collection, preservation,
exhibition and celebration of bad art in all its forms and
in all its glory.
MOBA was founded in the fall of 1993 and presented its first
show in March 1994. The response was overwhelming. Since
then, MOBA's collection and ambitions have grown
exponentially.
