THE WARRIOR ANT
The WarriorAnt has been in development since 1984. Because ofits large scale, it has been worked on in workshopperfo~ces produced by Liza Lorwin at The Perfonning Garage, Walker ArtCenter, Dance Thearer'Workshop, Los Angeles Museum ofContemporary Art (which also commissioned two radio adaptations for their "Tenitory ofArt" series), the'Denver Center fOr the Perfonning Arts, and at Alice Thlly Hall in 1986, where the Bunraku performers joined the performance. It became clear that a' consortium oforganizations would be the best way to cope with the growing and inter national cast. In 1987 Lee Breuer, Liza Loiwin and Bob Telson formed Colonus Inc., named for The Gospel at Colonus, their earlier work which went through a similar development process. In October 1987, a workshop WdS co-sponsored by Colonus and Yale School ofDrama (where Lee Breuer, is Co-Chairman, ofthe Directing Department), in association with Mabou Mines. It centered on "The Ant in Hell" sequence and included the Bunraku puppeteers. Immediately thereafter, the NEXT WAVE Festival at Brooklyn Academy' ofMusic, Colonus and Yale agreed to work together toward a larger premiere in 1988 (as Colonus and BAM had for The Gospel at Colonus in 1983). Spoleto Festival USA and the American Music Theater Festival came aboard as co-producers when the "Car nival" sequence was presented at their theaters this past summer. With the current presentation, Mabou Mines renews its participation as a co-producer.
