10-Speed Revolution

When their beloved bicycle is stolen, three anarchists hammer through Minneapolis in a fast-paced comedy of destruction. With additional material by Sam Rodgers CAST 3 men, 1 woman. RUNTIME About 60 minutes. SELECTED REVIEWS "With references to 'zines, Nietzsche and vegans - plus a plethora of expletives - playwright John Heimbuch's witty script is loaded with sly observations ... must see" - Amy Carlson Gustafson, St. Paul Pioneer Press "An unexpectedly intelligent and excellent adventure ... What an ear playwright John Heimbuch has for the high-octane rhetoric of the punk-anarchist subset! What's more, Heimbuch takes that heretical rhetoric, and shapes it into unpredictable clashes of wills ... A play that recalls the rawer and more jolting work of Sam Shepard." - John Townsend, Lavender Magazine PRODUCTION HISTORY Direct Current (Midtown International Theatre Festival), New York NY, 2008 Carleton College, Northfield MN, 2008 Young Mirror Rep (No Boundaries Festival), New York NY, 2006 Altered Esthetics Gallery (Bike Art show), staged reading, Minneapolis MN, 2006 Walking Shadow Theatre Company (MN Fringe Festival), Minneapolis MN, 2005 RECOGNITION/AWARDS Nominated for Best New Comedy, The 2008 MITF awards Finalist, Kitchen Dog Theatre's 2008 New Works Festival LINKS www.10speedrevolution.com Walking Shadow Theatre Company, Minneapolis Alexander Burns' 10-Speed Revolution page Click here to email me
