TSTMRKT presents "This Is Not A.I."
Man Vs. Robot Vs. Battery Life in a steel cage, "no holds barred" match to the bitter end.
TSTMRKT (pronounced “Test Market”) is a performance art sketch comedy amalgamation held together with film loops, cut-n-paste theatre, and a relentless soundtrack. There is no “sound person” running the effects. It’s just a “start” button and a bag of nerves.
Once the actor (me) hits “start” on the playback, the film collages and sound effects are triggered only by time. It’s the actor’s task to keep track of each second that passes, each syllable that is uttered, and each movement created in space. If anything is off, the entire thing falls apart. It’s a theatrical tightrope. It blends absurdist theatre, meta-fiction, standup, and sketch in an incredibly tight 60 minute performance.
Hailing from Las Vegas, TSTMRKT has performed at the prestigious San Francisco Sketchfest, The Cleveland Ingenuity Festival, The Dallas Comedy Festival, The Hollywood Fringe Festival, Toronto Sketch Comedy Festival, and the Portland Sketch Comedy Festival.
