How far would you go to restore the piece of yourself you hold dearest? In Hit the Lights! Theater Company’s new shadow play with music HORSETALE, a Horse and his Tail become separated and, in their search for each other, find themselves. HTL! weaves together handmade shadow puppetry, three vintage overhead projectors, live original folk music, and American iconography to tell a story as wild and expansive and intimate as the West itself.
Hit the Lights! Theater Co. is an award winning company born from an artistic agreement to tell simple stories well in unconventional ways. Utilizing found materials, flashlights, and cardboard, HTL! specializes in the transformation of ordinary into extraordinary. HTL!’s performances delight in the interplay between darkness and light, utilizing shadow puppetry as the lifeblood of their storytelling. The company is comprised of six experienced, multidisciplinary artists: puppeteers, actors, musicians, artisans, and everything in between.
