Monster Man
Choreography and performance by Anthony Gongora
Concept (Maida & Anthony & Tania)
Costume by Maida Withers
Sculpture/Metal Mask by David Page
Virtual images (including urban photograph) created by Tania Fraga

Moster Man places emphasis on the challenges for men to achieve the role often outlined for them in society.

The visual projection features a photo, shot by Tania Fraga, of metal and other images of cars in an elevated parking garage.


Helmet (photograph above) was NOT worn  by Anthony during Monster Man due to the metal headdress worn by Anthony Gongora during this section of MindFluctuations. The helmet was worn by another company dancer offstage near Tania Fraga to influence the computer.
