The End of TV

Manual Cinema debuts another feat of innovative, cinematic storytelling at Boston's Emerson Paramount Center Robert J. Orchard Stage with this special pre-sale offer. The End of TV dovetails the Technicolor promises of TV advertisements and the decline of the Rust Belt to weave a portrait of true human connection. The End of TV casts a theatrical spell through live-action silhouettes, video feeds, overhead projection and a five-piece band performing an original score. Set against the grain of a Midwestern city in decline, an elderly white woman and a young black woman build a genuine connection among all of the chatter of the television ads that surround daily American life.
