About the show
created by Rude Mechs
written by Kirk Lynn
directed by Shawn Sides
Part of the Humana Festival of New American
Plays
March 16 through 28, 2010
Victor Jory Theatre
The Method Gun explores the life and techniques of
Stella Burden, actor-training guru of the 60s and 70s,
whose sudden emigration to South America still haunts
her most fervent followers.
Ms. Burden's training technique, The Approach (often
referred to as "the most dangerous acting technique in
the world"), fused Western acting methods with risk-
based rituals in order to give even the smallest role a
touch of sex, death and violence.
A play about the
ecstasy and excesses of performing, the dangers of
public intimacy, and the incompatibility of truth on
stage and sanity in real life.
