Summaries

Summary Sentence: Arts@Tech 2015-16 Season presents Mark Gindick: Wing-Man, a story of love in the age of social media

Full Summary: Wing-Man is a laugh-out-loud and surprisingly poignant “one-clown show” that explores our obsession with social media. In the tradition of Keaton, Chaplin, and Irwin, award-winning performer Mark Gindick wordlessly battles a series of unexpected 21st century obstacles with only a stage-size interactive computer screen, his IPhone, and a tech-savvy audience. Gindick is the winner of Best One Man Show award at the 2011 United Solo Theatre Festival and three NY Downtown Clown Golden Nose Awards.
