Watch Mr. Dead & Mrs. Free

Overview

Squat Theatre described this piece, which was presented both as a film and as a live show, as "an open journey through situations, styles and moods; an 'Arabian Nights' with heroes and legends written on the New York wind whistling the melody of 'Somewhere Over the Rainbow.'" The 83-minute video combines drama with documentary, blurring the distinctions between theater and the everyday. In an indelible sequence that typifies the Squat Theatre's idiosyncratic cultural references, the underground pop icon Nico performs a marvelously jaded rendition of New York, New York.
