SHINING SEA: The Imperial American History Pageant
(INSERT DATES) at (INSERT LOCATION)
(TOWN NAME) – Bedlam Theatre of
When did the U.S.of A., freedom loving pinnacle of
democracies – become a Global Empire, an occupying force with military bases
everywhere? It didn’t happen
overnight. TO SHINING SEA, created and performed by John Francis Bueche and
Tom Snell, charts the natual evelotion of American Imperialism through 500
years of history – from Columbus’s gold tax on Espinola to Haliburton’s oil
contracts in Iraq. A critically-acclaimed
smash from Bedlam’s Hot Summer of One Acts, TO
SHINING SEA is a true history pageant featuring the words of our fearsome
leaders alongside centuries of popular wisdom, buried history, and
oft-forgotten facts in a fast-moving Bedlam spectacular – serious, satirical,
visual, musican, insightful. The production
also features Kristin Rah Kojis and Ivan Weiner and is directed by Mr. Bueche.

Since 1993 Bedlam Theatre, “the gutsiest, riskiest theatre
around” accoring to the Minneapolis StarTribune, has combined a
distinctly playful performance style with elemtents of visual spectacle to
produce a solid body of cutting edge performances for audiences in the Twin
Cities. Now, Bedlam’s wildly inventive
insights and gut-busting sardonia make a rare escape from the land of 10,000
potholes with the August tour of TO
SHINING SEA.
