“Seeing this last night – just pure, creative, experimental and successful art – was so uplifting. It was thought provoking and beyond creative. It was accessible, provocative, thoughtful, innovative, and original.” – Audience Member

Through an experience that is both solitary and communal, Super Duper asks where the truth resides in a world that defines itself by manufactured personae. While both observing and personally participating in this journey, the audience experiences the perspectives of various individuals exploring a pivotal and complex relationship they all shared.

Inspired in part by Itaru Sasaki’s Wind Phone, this work marks a new direction for the ensemble as we fuse our collaborative techniques with elements of immersive and interactive performance. Conceived and Developed in Workshop with the ensemble and Directed by Katharine Noon, this piece was originally slated for 2020. In 2020, when the pandemic hit, Ghost Road adapted the work in progress showing of Super Duper that was planned for June 2020 into a virtual as well as interactive experience. Ghost Road presented this virtual Super Duper in June 2020, August 2020, October 2020 and April 2021. After each incarnation, elements were added and the experience was enhanced.

Ghost Road will finally present an in-person version of the full piece in 2023. Stay tuned for details!
