Frank Garvey

Alias:

Gender: Male

Country: United States

Description: Frank Garvey is a radical all-around artist who dipped his fingers in painting, sculpting, songwriting, and theater. He is best known as the creator and director of the OmniCircus in San Francisco, the world's first robotic theater ensemble. Marxist philosophy, surreal dreamlike imagery, and a sweet-and-sour taste for the unfit (junk metal, the physically impaired, the socially marginal) have been fueling his creations since the 1980s. Garvey writes musical dramas that call for robotic and human actors, dancers, and singers. He leads the ensemble DeusMachina, also attached to the OmniCircus.
