New Musical Production by A.G.

If you call I'll be right with you, a new musical production by Miami-based artist A.G. will be held in the abandoned rotunda in Collins Park, Miami Beach, FL on the west-side corner of Collins Avenue & 22nd Street. The show will run twice each night on March 22nd and 23rd. 

Inhabiting the raw cylindrical structure, A.G.'s new production will debut music, movement, video, and lighting as it takes cues from philosophical ideas of the "Other" and the cinematic trope of the telephone. A.G.'s transdisciplinary practice aims to utilize production, theatrical modalities, and entertainment as a realm of thought to elicit the notion that reality is a malleable material and that we are all uniquely capable agents of self-direction. If you call I'll be right with you will be his first live show, considered a unique artwork in itself.

The abandoned and completely raw cylindrical rotunda will be produced into a theatrical space which will house the live musical experience. Described as "cosmic American music," Zeitgeist Machine, the new EP written and performed by A.G., will provide the soundtrack for the show- illuminating a nuanced shell of the Other; a philosophical set of ideas in regards to that which is opposite of one's Self. The pop-structured song list is inspired lyrically by the trope of the telephone, telecommunications, and implied communication- much like a medium conjures the spirits. The Other, which emerges as an invisible character through the actual production, illustrates a powerfully universal force which is in constant communication and operation- to be reached, impressed, rejected, feared and loved. The realization is that the Other has ultimately become a collective projection of the audience- participating in an active role.

As of now, a hotline is accessible from any telephone at 1(833) CALL-1-AG, which will premiere the title track as well as prompt a forum to leave a message.
