_______________________________________________________________________
Two-time Obie Award-winning playwright Mac Wellman will present, in
collaboration with a team of Location One artists, a new work-in-progress
entitled "Bitter Bierce," based on the life and works of satirist, critic,
journalist, novelist and short-story writer Ambrose Bierce.

In this unique collaboration between Mac Wellman and an international group
of Location One artists each performance will combine live and electronic
elements; a live actor will perform at three of the five scheduled events;
artists connected to a network both locally and remotely will respond to the
performer and the script using collaborative software to manipulate in
realtime video images and audio elements. These large-scale images will then
be projected onto the gallery walls and online at www.location1.org.

During gallery hours August 21st-24th, Location One will continuously show
an electronic presentation of Bitter Bierce that incorporates the prior
night's performance.

Location One is most grateful to the New York State Council on the Arts and
the City of New York Department of Cultural Affairs for their generous
support of this project.
